GPAG: Art Exhibiton – BRADLEY HUNT & FAMILY | New Directions: Contemporary Heiltsuk Paintings (mixed media)

to June 22nd. Drawing from traditional Heiltsuk box designs, crest figures, and other Heiltsuk cosmologies, as well as from contemporary and western art traditions, Bradley Hunt presents a collection that represents the continued evolution of his career as a professional artist. Beginning his artistic career in 1965, Hunt spent time as a designer making silkscreen prints, before dedicating himself to learning the craft of carving wood and metals. Known for his large sculptures and cedar wall panels, Hunt has recently transitioned to painting on wood panels. Highlighting this new phase of his work, this exhibition features paintings and a variety of pen and ink or pencil drawings; as well as works by several of Hunt’s family members.

Join us for the Opening Reception on Sat. May 31st, 2pm – 4pm!
