This book, accompanying an exhibition of the same name, delves into Jean-Paul Riopelle's exploration of northern Canada during the 1970s. Highlighting over 100 works including paintings, sculptures, prints, and mixed-media pieces, it reveals Riopelle's profound connection to the region's landscapes and indigenous communities. Unlike typical portrayals of Canadian nature, Riopelle's art transcends boundaries, offering a personal dialogue between reality and imagination.
