註釋"Robert Davidson is an internationally renowned multidisciplinary artist who is critically engaged in the contemporary arts, and deeply rooted in Haida cultural expression. Davidson continues to be a vital force in the Haida community and advocate for First Nations culture, education, ceremony, politics and art while sharing cultural knowledge with broader multi-cultural communities. "Robert Davidson: Progression of Form" is a multi-faceted project which will explore Davidson's latest artwork within the context of the current landscape of contemporary Canadian art and Davidson's cultural and artistic history. The exhibition, catalogue and programs will recognize the importance of the integration of the visual and performing arts and their intrinsic relationship with culture, ceremony and Haida identity. Although Davidson's vision is deeply rooted in tradition, he strives to push boundaries of representation and art-making to what he considers a universal artistic experience. The exhibition will showcase twenty of Davidson's most recent paintings as well as four epoxy-coted aluminum sculptures and a house post to be finished specifically for the exhibition. Many of the works lean close to abstraction while showing deep respect for traditional Haida artistic expression--it is in this balanced intersection that we see the significance of the progression of form."--
