• Summary:"This catalogue, exhibition and tour of fifty magnificent and challenging works by Carl Beam, is the first such opportunity to view a selection of his paintings, constructions, ceramics, and video that cover his entire artistic career... The entry of his painting The North American Iceberg (1985) in 1986 marked the dawn of a vital and burgeoning visual discourse in this country. Carl was a powerful voice in contemporary art in Canada. A key Anishinaabe artist, he drew upon all the cultural resources at the disposal of a contemporary artist"--Foreword
