JOHN TIKTAK, INUIT, Janus-Faced Composition, c. 1967-68

Item Details

Description

Lot 89
JOHN TIKTAK, R.C.A. (1916-1981) KANGIQLINIQ (RANKIN INLET)
Janus-Faced Composition, c. 1967-68s

caribou bone, 4 x 2.25 x 1.5 in (10.2 x 5.7 x 3.8 cm)
signed, “ᑎᑕ”.

Provenance
Marion Scott Gallery, Vancouver;
Acquired from the above by Fred & Mary Widding, Ithaca, NY.

Exhibited and Published: Handwerker Gallery, Gannett Center, Ithaca College, Of the People; Inuit Sculpture from the Collection of Mary and Fred Widding, 26 February - 6 April 2008. Catalogue: Cheryl Kramer & Lillian R. Shafer ed. Illustrated: cat. 21 (as Caribou Figures).Tiktak carved almost exclusively in stone; only a few examples of works carved in organic materials are known. They include a walrus tusk carved with faces, at least two ivory figures, and a small figure in antler. This remarkable Janus-Faced Composition is carved from the leg bone of a caribou; it is the only work we know of by Tiktak made from this material, and is possibly unique in his oeuvre. Judging from the facial features it was probably carved c. 1967-68, a period of intense experimentation for the artist. Interestingly Tiktak carved his signature below one of the faces, something he occasionally did in his sculptures as well. The Janus-face motif is not unheard of in his repertoire either, and naturally it relates to his multiple-head imagery as well.
