Art Gallery

The Native Art Gallery showcases a wide variety of artwork created by well-known Native artists and is the heart and soul of the entire Native Renaissance experience.

Emerging Native Arts

In creating and building up Native Renaissance, the multifaceted establishment that is the outward expression of his commitment to North American Native arts and culture, Thomas Maracle has proven himself to be a visionary living and acting far ahead of his time.

As an internationally acclaimed Native artist of long-standing, Thomas has been sculpting his culture and its stories and placing these works of art before the eyes of people from all over the world for the last 40 years.

Today, the North American Native art scene is exploding with creative energy. Native voices and talents that not very long ago were unheard and unacknowledged are now pouring forth on the world stage and giving us visual art, music, film, dance, theatre, and literature that is searing in its honesty and stirring in its potency.

In a time that has finally come, we hear singer/musician Jeremy Dutcher’s recognition of the rising presence of Native talent when he proclaimed in his Polaris prize acceptance speech, “Canada, you are in the midst of Indigenous renaissance.”

Native artists like Inuit throat singer turned author Tana Tagaq, and Oji-Cree two-spirit writer Joshua Whitehead (whose books both made the Giller Prize 2018 long list), will undoubtedly agree with Dutcher’s assessment of the remarkable time we are all living in. A remarkable time that Native North American artists are becoming freer and freer to whirl faster and fast in—and thereby join those path-blazing artists, like Thomas B. Maracle, who have been expecting them.
