Nunatsiavut Artist Celebrated

In 2008, The Rooms in St. John's features an extensive body of work by the noted photographer James
Anderson. The collection documents over fifty years of community life
in and around Makkovik, Labrador. The stories that accompany "Uncle
Jim's" work explain why for over half a century he has never been
without a camera. Anderson's collection has been called the "largest
collection of photographs from a single community in Canada" (Sam Kula
- Archival Consultant). It represents a remarkable record of community
and family life in Labrador that will be passed on for generations.
Anderson, now aged 89, still enjoys photography and capturing the
special moments in the every day. The exhibit runs through the 24th of
August.
