August 3, 2013 – June 15, 2014

The exhibition will feature works by modern masters such as Norval Morrisseau, George Morrison, Blake Debassige, Daphne Odjig and others, who, each in their own ways, sought visual expres- sion for the spiritual and social dimensions of human relations with the earth.

The exhibition will provide visitors with an understanding of the Anishinaabe as contemporary citizens of North America with deep indigenous roots in the traditional homeland of the Great Lakes.
