In this special Roots and Hoots collaboration episode with Knockabout Media, host Gordon Spence is pleased to be joined by Eric Burant and Garrison Garrow of the Indigenous Art Centre (IAC). Eric Burant is an Archivist of mixed Anishinaabe and settler ancestry and Garrison Garrow is the Manager of Programs and Collections and is a Kanien'kehá:ka artist from Akwesasne. The two speak with Gordon about the history of the Indigenous Art Centre, their shared passion for Indigenous art and the intention of their work.
Since its inception in 1965, the IAC holds one of the largest collections of contemporary Indigenous art. The vast collection includes sculptures, carvings, mittens, moccasins and paintings that are hand crafted and created by Indigenous artists across Canada. Eric and Garrison speak with Gordon about the necessity of showcasing, preserving and protecting Indigenous art. Pieces in the collection travel all over the world. To find out if any pieces are featured in a gallery near you, please contact: art@rcaanc-cirnac.gc.ca.
