Timeline

2015

In 2015, the West Vancouver Museum held a retrospective on Tait's work, his first solo exhibition since 1977.

1991

Tait worked with his carving partner, Lucinda Turner. He began teaching Turner in 1991, and they subsequently collaborated on many carvings, including two major commissions for the Vancouver Stock Exchange. They also opened the working art gallery, Wilp's Tsaak Gallery: House of the Mischievous Man in West Vancouver.

1982

He carved The Story of Big Beaver totem pole, a 16.8-metre (55 ft) pole installed in 1982 at the entrance to the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago. In 1992, Tait raised a totem in Bushy Park in London, England. Tait raised a totem pole to commemorate the opening of the Nisga'a Lisims Government building in New Aiyansh, BC, "Goothl Lisims", which translates as "the heart of the Nass". He has also carved poles standing in Osaka, Japan, and Germany, as well as many private collections.

1977

Tait had a breakthrough in 1977 when the UBC Museum of Anthropology hosted a solo exhibit of 125 of his works. At the time, First Nations carvers were exhibited in group shows.

1970

When he began carving in 1970, Tait sought out Nisga'a artifacts that he could study since there were no living Nisga'a master carvers for him to study. He worked with his father to raise the first Nisga'a totem pole in over 50 years. He later studied under the tutelage of the Haida carvers Freda Diesing and Gerry Marks.

1941

Norman Tait (May 20, 1941 – May 21, 2016) was a Nisga'a First Nations sculptor and totem pole carver from northwestern British Columbia, Canada.
