After a solo exhibition at the Power Plant Gallery, Toronto, Annie Pootoogook turned preconceptions of Inuit art on their proverbial ears. Her meticulous, yet minimal, drawings capture glimpses of life in Cape Dorset. Some are inspired by intimate or emotionally charged moments from Pootoogook's own life, others show scenes from the everyday, like waiting in line for an ATM on a sidewalk of permafrost, or watching Jerry Springer (above). Her work can now be seen at the the documenta art festival in Kassel, Germany. Read Pootoogook's profile atDorset Fine Arts.
