| ***************** OPEN INQUIRIES ***************** | Kenojuak has painted a mural for the 1970 World’s Fair in Osaka, In 1969, she and Johnniebo traveled to Ottawa to collaborate on a mural which hung in the Canadian Pavilion at Expo ’70 in Osaka, Japan In IAQ 31.4 In 1968 Kenojuak Ashevak, CC, ON, RCA (1927–2013) and Johnniebo Ashevak (1923–1972) were commissioned to create a plaster mural for Expo ’70 that saw them living and working in Ottawa for two months. The high contrast, relief mural featured a quintessential Kenojuak owl— feathers and plumes radiating in all directions. Surrounding the central owl were panels depicting animals, spirits and a camp scene. At over three metres tall and four metres across, it was heralded as the largest artwork by Inuit artists ever. Following completion, the mural was shipped to Japan to hang in the Canadian Pavilion. Kenojuak and Johnniebo were invited to travel to Expo ’70, but declined the offer. | ||||
