The Paradox of Norval Morrisseau (1974)
Directed by Duke Redbird, Henning Jacobsen
“Documentary about Indigenous Canadian painter Norval Morrisseau.”
Documentary · 28m
In this revealing study of Norval Morrisseau, filmed as he works among the lakes and woodlands of his ancestors, we see a remarkable Indigenous artist who emerged from a life of obscurity in the North American bush to become one of Canada's most renowned painters. Morrisseau the man is much like his paintings: vital and passionate, torn between his Ojibway heritage and the influences of the white man's world.
