A specially selected exhibition of rare graphic works by renown Haida artist Don Yeomans. Perhaps one of the most influential contemporary North West Coast artists, Yeoman’s work from the 1980s and 1990s signifies a major shift into contemporary subject matter while still maintaining traditional formline. The shift of focus towards an aesthetic based on design is evident through his explorations and growth over the years.

For only a short time, this exhibition truly represents a ‘golden age’ in Northwest Coast printmaking. “[The rules of formline] are not that different from the rules of contemporary design that determine such things as rhythm, balance, harmony, and flow” – Don Yeomans
