JOHN PANGNARK, INUIT, Figure, c. 1973-74

Item Details

Description

JOHN PANGNARK (1920-1980) ARVIAT (ESKIMO POINT)
Figure, c. 1973-74
stone, 4.5 x 4 x 1.5 in (11.4 x 10.2 x 3.8 cm)
signed, "ᐸᓂᔭ".

Provenance
Private Collection, Minneapolis, USA.

It never ceases to amaze us how subtly sensuous some seemingly simple carvings by Pangnark can be. Figure is a truly elegant little gem, a carving that begs to be cradled in one’s hands and gently caressed. Despite its crisp outline visually speaking, there are no hard edges. And for a so-called “minimalist” work, it is quite easily read as a human figure. Simply lovely.
