Categories: Books about Native Art, Eligible for NA Free Shipping, Shipping

Breathing Stone: Contemporary Haida Argillite Sculpture by Carol Sheehan was launched in our gallery on July 26th, 2008. This hard cover is signed in original by the author.

"Breathing Stone presents extraordinary new sculptures by contemporary argillite artists of Haida Gwaii- the Queen Charlotte Islands. Breathing Stone begins with author Carol Sheehan’s introduction to Haida culture and the historical realities that have shaped this unique art form. There is also an explanation of how argillite sculpture is produced and how it can best be appreciated. Personal portraits of 15 sculptors and their work, illustrated by nearly 200 colour photographs taken in artists’ workshops, galleries, collectors’ homes and on-site in Haida Gwaii, demonstrate like nothing else the power and richness of this art form. The artists of Breathing Stone are: Sean Brennan, Michael Brown, Donnie Edenshaw, Shaun Edgars, Chris Russ, Gary Minaker Russ, Marcel Russ, Lionel Samuels, Jay Simeon, Robert Vogstad, Darrell White, Gryn White, Martin Williams, Cooper Wilson, Freddie Wilson." Quoted from the Frontenac House Website.
