"Sacred Medicine Bear", 36"x30", © 1979 Norval Morrisseau
/Professional appraisal work done by Maslak Mcleod Gallery in Toronto Ontario by Mr. Joseph McLeod who was as of January 23rd, 2007 a member of Art Dealers Association of Canada (ADAC); currently a member of The Canadian association of Personal Property Appraisers (CPA); Currently part of Ugo Matulić a.k.a. Spirit Walker's Private Collection (Calgary, Alberta). - Click on image to enlarge/

~ The above presented 'Sacred Medicine Bear', 1979 was previously owned by Mr. Michael Moniz (Brampton, Ontario) and it is currently part of Ugo Matulić a.k.a. Spirit Walker's Private (Calgary, Alberta). In order to acqiure this painting the writer of this text traded it with the 'Untitled', 1978 which is also part of this comparison report.
-
NOTE: We can clearly see that both of these artworks were painted/executed with almost identical compositions and colour combinations. This confirms, more than once in the presentations on this blog, that Norval Morrisseau repeated many times his images.
-
>>> Along with professional appraisal work done by Maslak Mcleod Gallery in Toronto Ontario by Mr. Joseph McLeod a member of the Canadian Public Appraisers (former member of ADAC). Further forensic work was conducted and found proof positive for the signature painted in black paint on the verso of 'SACRED MEDICINE BEAR' dated 1979 by Mr. Brian Lindblom of 'The Document Examination Consultants Inc.'.
-
The 'Document Examination Consultants Inc.' are noted for their forensic expertise and called upon by various law enforcement agencies such as the RCMP to conduct forensic examinations to be used in a court of law. Go to "Personnel" section of their website to access PDF version of Mr. Brian Lindblom's CV.
-
This type of work is forensics at it's best and is quite costly to employ. This kind of examination was done under the eye of un-biased professional scrutiny.
-
The forensics work can only be conducted using many publicly known signature and writing sample specimens of Norval Morrisseua's signature as it is found on prints, personal letters and publicly known artwork created by Norval Morrisseau.
-
All specimens of writing archived by the examiners were used in determining the author of the signature and title painted on the verso of 'Sacred Medicine Bear'.
-
A positive Identification of the signature was made and determined that it was done by the hand of 'Norval Morrisseau' Canadian Woodland Artist through a multiple point grade system.
The painting 'Sacred Medicine Wheel' can be sourced back to Khan's auction house sold by Mr. Randy Potter (auctioneer) to Mr. Michael Moniz.
-
Two paintings once owned by Mr. Joseph Otavnik were also examined by the document examiners and three paintings in Mr. Michael Moniz's collection: Father and Son, 1977; Sacred Medicine Wheel, 1975 and Sacred Medicine Bear, 1979 featured in this article. These five paintings were found to have positive signature identifications authored by the brush of Norval Morrisseau.
-
Forensic work was also employed by Mr. Joseph McLeod, owner of Maslak Mcleod Gallery on twelve paintings and by Mr. James White who is an art dealer from Toronto on six of his paintings. These paintings on canvas were examined by the same forensic firm 'The Document Examination Consultants Inc.' years ago. Mr. Joseph Otavnik and Mr. Michael Moniz have used the same firm for a forensic signature evaluation of the paintings from their collections. The eighteen paintings owned by Mr. Joseph McLeod and Mr. James White came back also with proof positive signatures painted on the verso of each piece authored by Norval Morrisseau.
-
All of the paintings that came from Mr. Otavnik's, Mr. Moniz's and Mr. White's collections including the 'Sacred Medicine Bear' came from 'Randy Potter Estate Auction' and through Mr. David Voss, a Thunder Bay collector. One can link themselves into Mr. Otavnik's case by following the links below for an in depth exploration of this man's case of Otavnik vs Vadas SC 07-51428-00 and see for yourself the importance and power of forensic science.
