Chief Tony Hunt
In 1970 Tony Hunt opened the Arts of the Raven Gallery in Victoria.
Chief Tony Hunt Or Mu-pen-kim Kla-kwa dzee (Four-Times-Chief Big Copper) is ditary chief of the kwaGulth people of Fort Rupert and Kingcome Inlet, B.C. Tony Hunt, his father and his grandfather (Mungo Martin) were the creators of Victoria's famous Thunderbird Park. Subsequently, Tony Hunt designed the Hunt Family Big House within the Royal Victoria Museum, but his grand masterpiece is the Kwagulth ceremonial Big House at Fort Rupert, the largest traditional native structure ever built in the Pacific Northwest.
Chief Tony Hunt has been an artist all his life, and has designed and carved nearly one hundred full-scale totem poles more than any native artist, living or dead. (Remarkably, the composite height of these totem poles is greater than the world’s tallest freestanding structure-Toronto's CN Tower). Beyond his contribution to Canadian heritage, many of his totems have become celebrated national monuments in America, Great Britain, Mexico, Argentina, Germany, New Zealand, Japan, and China.
Among the many honors awarded him outside his traditional culture are: Honorary Doctorate of Law, Royal Roads Collage; Royal Canadian Academy of arts, CM; Honorary Life Member, Alumni Association of University of British Columbia and Commonwealth Medal of Honor.
