Culture - Eagle Spirit Gallery

A GuestLife Vancouver Great Gallery.

Picturesque Granville Island provides the perfect setting for the Eagle Spirit Gallery, where land, sea and beautiful art come together. The Gallery boasts an impressive collection of Northwest Coast Native and Inuit art, including pieces such as hand-carved masks, bentwood boxes, argillite stone carvings, glass sculptures, totem poles, bronzes and original paintings. Each piece is uniquely crafted using contemporary form and material reflective of traditional creations.

Many renowned Northwest Coast artists such as Robert Davidson, Elsie John, Klatle-Bhi, Ray Natrall, Susan Point, Moy Sutherland, Carl Stromquist and Jordan Seaward showcase their work at the gallery. The gallery is excited about displaying the work of Haida artist Lyle Campbell, whose wonderful prints, paintings, masks and jewellery are featured, as well as his impressive 10 foot totem carving. Also, Terry Starr, a talented Tsimshian artist periodically carves and paints in the gallery. Call the gallery to inquire about the schedule.

Salish artist Francis Horne Sr., a master carver with over 35 years of experience, showcases unique, one of a kind pieces of North West Coast art and exhibits his work exclusively through Eagle Spirit Gallery.

The gallery is also pleased to now feature Larry Rosso’s fine works which include bentwood boxes and carved wood panels. Also presented are beautiful examples of arctic sculpture carved from green serpentine stone. This traditional art of the Inuit people continues to evolve through works by artists such as Nuna Parr and Aqjangajuk Shaa, both from Cape Dorset.

‘Lax skiik’ or ‘Eagle Spirit,’ a painting by Kwakwaka’wakw artist Lawrence Wilson, was purchased by the gallery’s director Robert Scott and inspired the name of the gallery which opened thirteen years ago.
