Pitaloosie Pitalousie Saila Cape Dorset Drawing
Est: $600 - $800
21" by 27". Title is Innukshuk Woman. Pitaloosie (Pitalousie) Saila (Born 1942) is active/lives in Nunavut / Canada. Pitaloosie Saila is known for Inuit drawing of nurturing women, birds, mythological figure, graphic art. Pitaloosie was born in 1942 on the southwest coast of Baffin Island near what is now the community of Cape Dorset. She spent her childhood years in various hospitals in Quebec and Ontario for treatment of tuberculosis. She learned English during this time, and recalls the difficulty she experienced in relearning her native language upon her return to Baffin Island in 1957. She is now one of the few of her generation who speak both English and Inuktitut fluently. Pitalossie began drawing in the early 1960s, and quickly established herself as a versatile and intelligent graphic artist. Pitaloosie has treated a wide range of themes and has developed personal styles that range from pure realism to formal/abstract, and that include compositions blending both styles. She tends to stylize and to reduce to the essential, the shape of a single subject. Powerful compositions are the result. Some of Pitaloosies works are uniquely striking for their unconventional style, their modernist approach and their intelligent use of color and texture. Like other Cape Dorset artists, Pitaloosie uses her art to express her concerns and to be in her own way a chronicler of the traditional Inuit way of life. Over the years, she has become a familiar presence in the Kinngait Studios, and her work has been included in annual print collections since 1968, Since the late 1960s Pitalossie has made frequent trips to southern Canada to attend exhibitions and conferences. In 1967, she spent several weeks in Toronto while her husband, the well known sculptor Pauta Saila, participated in an International Sculpture Symposium. Subsequently, she has visited Halifax, Toronto, Ottawa, Kansas City and Vermont. Her work has been featured in solo drawing exhibitions, and in 1977, Canada Post issued a stamp depicting her print, Fishermans Dream. Her 1985 lithograph entitled In the Hills represented the Northwest Territories in the centennial celebration of the National Parks of Canada. Amnesty International, the international human rights organization, selected a drawing by Pitaloosie entitled Mother and Child to use for their 1990 Christmas card. She was also one of nine featured artists in the acclaimed exhibition Isumavut: The Artistic Expression of Nine Cape Dorset Women, which opened at the Canadian Museum of Civilization in the fall of 1994 and continues to travel to other venues.

Pitaloosie Saila Stonecut - "Family of Twins" (1971)
Est: $600 - $900
**First Time At Auction** Pitaloosie Saila (Inuit of Cape Dorset/Kinngait, 1942-2021) "Family of Twins" stonecut on paper, 1971. Edition 18 of 50. Signature, title, edition number, and date in pencil below. A fascinating stonecut by Pitaloosie Saila, an Inuit artist of Cape Dorset known for her mother and child imagery, "Family of Twins" presents a mother carrying her two babies in one amauti as was the tradition, this union symbolizing their strong bond. Below are two abstract zoomorphs. The twins do not appear to be identical, one may be male and the other female. In years past, if a mother gave birth to twins, one had to be given away or killed, as it was thought that two children could not be raised simultaneously. Usually, girls were sacrificed, as boys were expected to help suppor their parents when they reached adulthood. Prints like this example are a significant means of storytelling and preserving knowledge of traditions as well as demonstrating pride in Inuit history and culture. Size (sight view): 16" L x 19" W (40.6 cm x 48.3 cm) Size (frame): 23.8" L x 26.5" W (60.5 cm x 67.3 cm) Artist Statement: "I remember how Inuit used to live, thinking of them back then, my relatives. I also recall how the clothing was made; that is what I base my drawings on when I draw people."

Lipton, ed., Arctic Vision: Art of the Canadian Inuit, Canadian Arctic Producers, 1984, page 29.Note:A print from this edition was presented to Prime Minister Jean Chrétien in 1974 by Canadian Arctic Producers. “The contemporary, Picasso-like image is of a powerful woman. She has tattoo marks under her nose as well as horizontal stripes around the tops of her boots indicating she is a female figure. The design on men’s boots would go straight down in a vertical line. The black area on the face represents shadow. Pitaloosie heard of some ‘boss women’ existing a long time ago and she finds the subject very interesting.”

Her and her (now deceased) husband Pauta Saila were somewhat of an Inuit art power couple, considering their immense contribution to Canadian art.
