- JOE TALIRUNILI STONECUT - WHITE OWL
JOE TALIRUNILI STONECUT - WHITE OWL & LEMMING (1962)Joe Talirunilik (Inuit, 1893-1976, Disc Number E9-818). "White Owl and Lemming" stone cut, Povungnituk, 1962. Edition 25 of 30. Signed, numbered, and dated in pencil below image. Also signed in cartouche with syllabics. A striking stonecut print by Inuit artist Joe Talirunilik (also Talirunili) published in "Art of the Eskimo: Prints" (1974) with the following description, "Composing his image in terms of positive and negative space, Joe gives a clear vision of the proud nocturnal hunter, the owl. Its prey is humorously indicated in the corner. With an admirable sense of integrity, Joe allows the mass of the stone to frame the subject. The syllabics in the cartouche give the name of the artist." Size: 19.125" L x 17" W (48.6 cm x 43.2 cm)
About the artist: "Born about 1898 at the place called Niaqunna (headache) near the mouth of the Qugaaluk River south of Povungnituk; his father was Putugu (big toe) and his mother Pualu (mitten). While still an infant, Joe took part in the desperate journey during which thirteen Eskimo families saved their lives by paddling a makeshift umiak through the breaking ice-floes to the Ottawa Islands. He is the last survivor of the forty Eskimoes involved in that epic voyage. Joe and his family moved to Povungnituk in 1963. Bug and burly, a hunter/trapper all his life, he is still vigorous in his seventies and is the hero of many an Arctic adventure, several of which he has illustrated in carvings and prints."
