Parr (1893-1969) m.Printmaker: Lukta Qiatsuq (1928-2004) m., Cape DorsetMen Pulling a Walrus, 1964 #60, stonecut, 39/50, 12.75 x 23 in, 32.3 x 58.4 cm sight, 21 x 31 in, 53.3 x 78.7 cm framedThis image is illustrated in “The Inuit Print” (no. 36). Parr’s original drawing was actually larger and considerably more complex; to compare the print and print drawing, see Dorothy Labarge, From Drawing to Print (Glenbow Museum, 1986, pp. 28-29). Both of these images date from approximately the same period in Parr’s relatively short artistic career. They exhibit Parr’s freer narrative style – with true interaction between humans and animals – that followed his more static “displayed” and “systematized” or schematized drawings of animals and humans from 1961-63. Parr began working mostly with crayons after 1963, and with felt-tip pens; his drawing style became even looser in later years.
