- Notice biographique
- Irene Kataq Angutitok (Angutitaq/Katak/Katalaea/Katark/Katerk/Katark/Kataleae) was an Inuit sculptor who flourished in Repulse Bay (Nauujat), a small hamlet in Nunavut. Many of her works revolve around Christian biblical stories, which she was encouraged to carve by Father Bernie Franzen. Other sculptures, primarily carved from whalebone, depict standing lone female figures. Angutitok's sculptures have been presented in many exhibitions throughout Canada, and her works are held in collections including the Canadian Museum of Civilization, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and the Winnipeg Art Gallery. In 2002, Angutitok's 1952 walrus ivory and soapstone carving, "Mary and Child," was represented on an International Canadian postage stamp specially issued for the holiday season.
