Native Art in Canada: An Ojibway Elder’s Art and Stories

Native Art in Canada: An Ojibway Elder’s Art and Stories

A website that deals with many facets of Ojibway life including art.  There are sections on the Woodland School and a page devoted to Morrisseau’s life and influence on Ojibway art.  The information is presented in a story teller style which may be of interest to classroom teachers as a resource.

Norval Morrisseau Legal

Norval Morrisseau Legal

A blog  by Ritchie Sinclair, who describes himself as a Morrisseau protege, that details the lawsuits filed on behalf of those pressing the claim that there are many Norval Morrisseau counterfeit paintings.  Some of the lawsuits are filed against the hosts of the websites Morrisseau hoax exposed and the Norval Morrisseau blog.  This appears to be a blog that is used to publicize the counterclaims to the other Morrisseau websites.

The Morrisseau hoax exposed blog

The Morrisseau hoax exposed blog

A strong polemic by John Goldi on the hoax that many of Morrisseau’s paintings are forgeries.  The site details through documents, videos, timelines a complex story of the attempt of art dealers to raise the value of some of Morrisseau work by calling into question the authenticity of many of his later work.
