The gallery Pierre-François Ouellette art contemporain is honored to present, in collaboration with the Dorset Fine Arts/West Baffin Eskimo Co-Operative, a selection of drawings by three Kinngait artists who are present on the international art biennial scene: Shuvinai Ashoona who is currently participating in the Venice Biennale, Qavavau Manunie who exhibited earlier this year in Australia at the Sydney Biennale and Kananginak Pootoogook who exhibited at the Venice Biennale in 2017. In collaboration with VTape, the gallery's video room features Marcia Connolly's "Ghost noise," a moving portrait on Shuvinai Ashoona made in 2010.
