To celebrate 60 years of Cape Dorset printmaking, Feheley Fine Arts in Toronto is showing a collection of prints, one from each year since 1959.

The images in 60/60 acknowledge many artists, and highlight innovations in style, technique, scale and subject matter. A preview of the 2019 Cape Dorset annual print collection will also be on display.

“The longevity of the Kinngait Studios has been based in the combined talents of both the artists and the extraordinary printers who, for 60 years, have collaborated to make emblematic works,” says Patricia Feheley, the gallery's director. 

Artists include Kenojuak Ashevak, Kananginak Pootoogook, Parr, Pudlo Pudlat, Lucy Qinnuayuak, Sheojuk Etidlooie, Arnaqu Ashevak, Ningiukulu Teevee, Papiara Tukiki, Annie Pootoogook, Tim Pitsiulak and Ooloosie Saila.

The show is open from Oct. 12 to Nov. 12.
