Comprehension

1. The best Eskimo carvings of all ages seem to possess a powerful ability to reach across the great
barriers of language and time and communicate directly with us. The more we look at these carvings, Line (5)
the more life we perceive hidden within them. We discover subtle living forms of the animal, human, and
mystical world. These arctic carvings are not the cold sculptures of a frozen world. Instead, they reveal to us
the passionate feelings of a vital people (10) well aware of all the joys, terrors, tranquility, and wildness of
life around them. Eskimo carvers are people moved by dreams. In spite of all their new contacts with the
outsiders, they are still concerned with their own kind of mystical (15) imagery. The most skillful carvers
possess a bold confidence, a direct approach to their art that has a freedom unsullied by any kind of
formalized training. Eskimo carvers have strong, skilled hands, used to forcing hard materials with their
simple tools. Their (20) hunting life and the northern environment invigorates them. Bad weather often
imposes a special kind of leisure, giving them time in which to perfect their carvings. They are among the last
of the hunting societies (25) that have retained some part of the keen sense of observation that we have so
long forgotten. The carvers are also butchers of meat, and therefore masters in the understanding of animal
anatomy. Flesh and bones and sheaths of muscle seem to move (30) in their works. They show us how to
drive the caribou, how to hold a child, how to walk cautiously on thin ice. Through their eyes we understand
the dangerous power of a polar bear. In the very best of Eskimo art we see vibrant animal and human (35)
forms that stand quietly or tensely, strongly radiating a sense of life. We can see, and even feel with our
hands, the cold sleekness of seals, the hulking weight of walrus, the icy swiftness of trout, the flowing
rhythm in a flight of geese. In their art we catch (40) brief glimpses of a people who have long possessed a
very different approach to the whole question of life and death. In Eskimo art there is much evidence of
humor which the carvers have in abundance. Some of the (45) carvings are caricatures of themselves, of
ourselves, and of situations, or records of ancient legends. Their laughter may be subtle, or broad and
Chaucerian. Perhaps no one can accurately define the right way or wrong way to create a carving. Each
carver (50) must follow his own way, in his own time. Technique in itself is meaningless unless it serves to
express content. According to the Eskimo, the best carvings possess a sense of movement that seems to
come from within the material itself, a feeling (55) of tension, a living excitement
