Ronald Senungetuk (/səˈnʌŋɡɛtˌʌk/ sə-NUNG-ɡet-uk;[1] 1933 – January 21, 2020)[2] (last name pronounced Sinuŋituk in Iñupiaq) was an Iñupiaq artist originally from Wales, Alaska, who worked primarily in wood and metal.[3]

Career

He is a citizen of the Native Village of Wales, a federally recognized Alaska Native tribe.[4] Senungetuk was a sculptor and silversmith and was known for his abstractions of animal figures. He attended the Bureau of Indian Affairs school in Sitka before training at the School for American Craftsmen at the Rochester Institute of Technology and received his B.A. in 1960. Senungetuk received a Fulbright Fellowship to study at Statens Håndværks og Kunstindustriskole Oslo, Norway.[5] He and his wife, Turid, an accomplished silversmith, lived in Homer.[6]

Senungetuk taught at the University of Alaska Fairbanks beginning in 1961.[7] He founded their metalsmithing program and served as director of its Native Art Center.[8] During his teaching career he emphasized modern style of jewelry-making, avant-garde conepts, and respect for native traditional imagery.[7] However, Senungetuk preferred not to be identified solely as a native artist, saying "A lot of people will call you an Eskimo artist. I'd rather be an artist who happened to be Inupiat."[9]

His work was exhibited at the Anchorage Museum, the Museum of the North at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, the Native Medical Center in Anchorage, and the Pratt Museum in Homer.[5][7]

His daughter is musician and ethnomusicology scholar Heidi Aklaseaq Senungetuk.[10]
