pp. 136, “As a doctor, Harry Winrob was fascinated by bone sculpture and collected works in whalebone, bone, and antler. The Winrob Collection, donated to the Gallery as a legacy, contains the most significant assemblage of sculpture created from these materials, which due to declining availability, makes such sculptures quite rare. The collection is also notable for its wealth of innovative sculpture from the Nunavik communities of Puvirnituq, Inukjuak, and Kangiqsualujjuaq. Among the artists are Nick Sikkuark and Karoo Ashevat. Magnificently illustrated with full page colour plates.”
