norvalMORRISSEAU 

Norval Morrisseau is considered  one of Canada's most important artists. The Norval Morrisseau school or style has been emulated by countless artists. Yet he alone remains the original. In 2005 Morrisseau himself created the Norval Morrisseau Heritage Society  (NMHS) in order to create a catalogue raisonné.

From February 3 to April 30, 2006 the National Gallery of Canada presented a three month retrospective of Norval Morrisseau's art. This marks the first time in the history of the National Gallery that a native artist has had a solo show. The show was also restaged at the McMichael Gallery in Kleinberg, Ontario, the Institute of American Indian Arts Museum in Santa Fe, New Mexico and National Museum of the American Indian, New York City.

All Norval Morrisseau paintings purchased through Steffich Fine Art will be submitted to the
Norval Morrisseau Heritage Society (NMHS) for inclusion in the catalogue raisonné.

In May of 2006 Norval Morrisseau lent our  gallery 18 works of art for an exhibition. None of the canvas's or ink drawings had ever been shown publicly  Click here to see the exhibition.
