Exposing the crooked decision making by “Ding dong Dingle” of that spiritually bankrupt Norval Morrisseau estate...just gross.

 

Indeed it is true what they say that you cannot make a crooked bird fly straight. The hard truth and reality is just that. I’ve been watching this whole scene unfold for well over 20 years of investigation and expert research. I’ve unfortunately met them all around the legacy except for most of Morrisseau’s children, thank goodness. I have met David Morrisseau years ago who was sexually abused by his own father. Go ask David, apparently he tells just about everybody he meets. It’s common knowledge in the art circles around Toronto and lots of Indians know this. As a father myself it absolutely disgusts me that a fake legend like diddler Norval has done this to his own child, his own son. There are other victims and witnesses who have come forward since including myself. It’s the main reason why I suspect David has always been an outcast from his family. Why he was so heavily involved in the art fraud of his “Pedophile” fathers legacy. The exact same can be said of all of Norvals children. They all backed the black drybrush fakes that were spearheaded by convicted of art fraud and serial rapist in Gary Lamont from Thunder Bay Ont, an old dear friend of Norvals. This is the reality. 

The truth is that there really is no one who is even willing or who can keep these crooked birds accountable. I am that individual and I hold this light with integrity because quite frankly I believe it is absolutely wrong to prop up sexual abusers of children as cultural icons. There are many who I know feel the very same way. It is difficult for many to realize this because they’ve been lied to by so many broken souls around the legacy of Norval Morrisseau. Hiding these stories from the general public. Those in academia and in hundreds of Canadian institutions being either in denial or simply haven’t done their research regarding these dark chapters in our history. We are in a period of truth and reconciliation, not hide and seek or denial. Here’s another example of many regarding this sick and twisted legacy of the pedophile Morrisseau:


Pictured here is a screen shot from the Norval Morrisseau estate Facebook page. The insanity of this feature post that they’ve released involves none other than Phil Cote, a suspected forger of Morrisseau’s art in the 1990’s and 2000’s through Maslak Mcleod gallery now permanently shut down out of Yorkville area in Toronto. They are making crooked decisions like this, including backing the cultural appropriation and deceptions of Buffy Saint Marie, (saying statements that ol Buffy shines like 16 suns...lol) saying as well that Christian Morrisseau was a genius when really Christian was also heavily involved in the forgery of his sexually abusing fathers art works and legacy. There are so many examples of just how sick and broken that old dying bird of the Morrisseau legacy has done. It’s disgusting. The whole fuckin thing. Here’s an example of a suspected Phil Cote fake sourced from Maslak mcleod:

Here’s the guy doing a talk at the church no less where he’ll give his bullshit interpretation of Morrisseau’s “man changing into crooked bird“ in downtown Toronto on this coming weekend. That’s how truly fucked up this legacy is. It’s a national shame and a total disgrace in the woodland school of art. Backwards Charlie as my father used to say. Any how this is the true nature of how I see this whole mess. The fraud behind the fraud. For me, that’s all this shit bag of a legacy will always be. A lie. A crooked bird that will never be able to fly straight. They’ll have to come to terms with this at some point. You cannot hide and deny the truth forever. People are waking up and are starting to realize that everything I have said about it has been straight up and honest. I will not let this continue to happen to another generation of innocent and trusting souls who wouldn’t  know otherwise if it wasn’t for people like me. Willing to risk my future on behalf of the truth. Once you know? You know...

Exposing the stupidity, ignorance and lies of those around the Norval Morrisseau estate

 

Good evening to each and everyone who continues to find the truth being shared here @ Jacobson native art. This article will be about exposing the stupidity and ignorance around the art, life and legacy of Norval Morrisseau and that bastard estate. Let’s start with Gabe and Michelle Vadas. Pictured above. 

These 2 have done so much damage in their lies and deceptions. Doing whatever it takes to project this false image of the sexual predator in Norval Morrisseau and his art. Why? The money. That’s the only reason why. It’s disgusting how white settlers will literally sell their souls for the all mighty dollar. No integrity and with regard to Michelle Vadas I’m happy to hear that she left her abuser in Gabe Vadas. That is a very good move for her and I hope she does heal. She was forced to lie for that sack of shit in Gabe who was also Morrisseau’s sexual pimp and boy toy. 

I have information for you Michelle. I have living evidence that Gabe Vadas has been cheating on you for years. Behind your back. He slept with other men’s ladies and sexual partners. Men too. Get well and don’t ever go back to that. You can do much better. You deserve to heal and get out. I hope your children heal too. They deserve a better life. Norval Morrisseau’s historic sex crimes shouldn’t be swept under the carpet. The time for exposing these truths are upon us. More to come...

Pictured here: Convicted serial rapist Gary Lamont with historic sexual abuser Norval Morrisseau 

Pictured here is the former pimp and drug dealer for Norval Morrisseau in Gary Lamont. Plastered all over the news and internet for his grotesque sexual crimes. Standing in front of a fake Morrisseau painting (the black drybrush garbage). How fitting though when you step back and take a real long look at this picture, it all makes sense. Sex crimes, rape, cultural genocide, prostitution, art fraud, perversion and the list goes on and on. What a disgrace. The whole fuckin lot of them. 
Pictured here: Don Robinson holding a fake Morrisseau in Yorkville (Toronto Ont.)
Next in line are these crooked fuck nuts from Kinsmen Robinson gallery in toronto. Both liars who sold numerous fakes and who have been holding up several lies about who they are and their involvement in deceiving the Canadian art buying public. When the black drybrush fakes started popping up at auction houses like Randy potter auctions and so forth, these 2 clowns started buying them all up thinking that they had their hands on a new gold mine. Lol. Fuckin idiot fucks especially Paul Robinson (pictured above ) this lying sack of shit. He reminds me of a filthy looking sewage rat. He’s another one id like to take up the mountain for a nice little trip. Fuckin bottom feeder scum. 

Pictured here: White settler and ceo of the historic sexual abuser in Norval Morrisseau and the estate, Cory “ding dong” Dingle. This idiot is a complete fool in the art world. Imagine that eh? Collecting hundreds of paintings from a historic sexual abuser. Thinking he’s a hero. an icon, grand shaman....right. How about grand bullshit. The whole fucking legacy of Norval Morrisseau. The biggest let down in the entire school of our woodland art. What a disgrace...

Pictured here: So called Morrisseau expert and Academic but very poor researcher in Carmen Robertson. Here she is standing in front of a fake “Phil Cote fake Morrisseau” sourced from kinsmen Robinson gallery in Toronto called: white mans curse. What a scam by KRG getting Carmen to sell herself out with these types of fakes found in the book “travels to the house of invention”. Doing whatever it takes to try and legitimize those abominations. It was John Zemanovich, me and yes, Ritchie too who were the experts and that is why we were such a force back then. But look now? Weakness everywhere. I feel sorry for this woman...too bad. Just goes to prove that academia is a fuckin joke. The real experts are the master artists in this school. Remember that. 
 
Pictured here:Morrisseau family foundation discussing their criminal plans and activities. It’s really gross what these Morrisseau children and family members are guilty of. An ugly mess of forgery, crimes, drugs, alcoholism and raping their fathers legacy. 


Next we have the dysfunctional white settler and fake Morrisseau art lover and collector in Jim White who is the brain child of white distribution and publishing. Responsible for polluting our woodland school of art with thousands upon thousands of fake prints, his collection of fake Morrisseau paintings, this guy is a self centred greedy old white man. His whole deportment stinks. Everything about him, grotesque. One of the biggest fools in the art business. Super gross what he is responsible for. 

Next is this poor sap in Joe Otavnik. This guy bought dozens of fake Morrisseaus hoping against hope that he had hit the jack pot as well. Not. What happened here is these guys who bought these fake black drybrush Morrisseau paintings all got fucked. By who? A convicted serial rapist in none other than Gary Lamont who is currently awaiting criminal prosecution for yet again 3 more sexual assaults. This pig in Lamont just did 5 plus years in federal prison for being the fuckin skinner that he is and will always be. It’s so beyond pathetic and yet still all these settlers and Morrisseau collectors and dealers wait on pins and needles for the police investigation to produce criminal charges, some sort of results. But nothing....still. 

Pictured here is chronic bullshitter and criminal conspirator in Wolf “small wille” Morrisseau standing with you guessed it, fake Norval Morrisseau Paintings. This guy is a sad sack of shit as well. Lying to anyone and everyone about him teaching big brother and historic sexual abuser in Norval to sign the back of these abominations in black drybrush paint in English. To help the white settler understand better...lol. Fuckin idiots around this whole thing. So pathetic what the lust for money does to a person. Yuck. 

Pictured here: Benjiman “broken wing” Morrisseau. This idiot is such a lying dirt bag. Responsible for thousands of fake “uncle diddler” Morrisseau’s this poor and broken soul served the obsessive nature and desires of his filthy and disgusting habits. Unable to tell the truth, he continues hide out in Thunder Bay underneath some fuckin rock. What a complete piece of shit. Even now....just gross really. 

Pictured here: Bryant ross who really is a personal let down for me. I used to like this guy as a friend  and even did some business with him but yet again, ignorance, ego and pride got in the way with this guy. A man who served the needs of his historic  sexual abuser friend and mentor in Norval Morrisseau, he continues to serve Gabe Vadas and the estate of Norval Morrisseau selling prints paintings and whatever else he can get his fuckin hands on. Including finishing off Morrisseau paintings in his studio out in Aldergrove BC. 

Pictured here: White cultural appropriator in Ritchie “star dreamer” Sinclair. A Morrisseau puppet who would do just about anything to achieve art stardom. It’s sad when I really think about it. I actually kinda feel sorry for Ritchie. A proxy in fighting the Morrisseau art fraud, he too fell victim to the belief that Norval was some sort of “grand shyster shaman” bullshit. White people have a tendency to want to be us so bad, that their willing to sell their souls and create these fake identities and try to become these pretendians. It’s super fuckin weird grey owl shit. It’s sad...

Pictured here: Flake Angeconeb not knowing a fuckin thing about the spirit of the woodland school of art. A fame hungry and colonized appropriator, this guy has to be one of the biggest jokes in the woodland school. Bastardizing our art form with his misleading cartoon garbage and thievery of everybody else’s art  except his own, he reminds me of a lost soul out at sea trying to plug the hole in his little dingy. 

Without doing any research about the art fraud of Norval Morrisseau or the involvement of the criminal activities of the estate, he goes around kissing ass and polishing nuts to try and get ahead, to make a name for himself. It’s fuckin gross really. He reminds me of Ritchie Sinclair a little bit in that regard. It’s a pattern with this “toy” as well. He knows nothing of our culture except how to rub the colonizer the right way. This guy will always be an art prostitute in my books and someone who should’ve done his “research” when it comes to aligning yourself, your family and name to the historic sexual abuser in Norval Morrisseau. Now you see. You should’ve been smart and asked those of us who knew more about this reality then you did. But like the philosophy of the white colonized settler, it appears now that money fame and prestige were more important. What a waste of potential...

Now you’ve tied google, yourself and family to historic sexual abuse in Morrisseau. Let alone all the fraud, crime etc tied to the estate. You really are such a “TOY”. Real fuckin smart....goof. 

Above google doodle a reference for what not to do when building a career around the arts. Do your research people. It’s the only way to move forward without tying yourself to this shit. Trust me, I too have learned. There will be more information coming forward with all of this soon. So stay tuned....all my relations, MAJ

An expert review on the new Official Norval Morrisseau.com website


 Good afternoon to each and everyone who comes by my new site. The heart has been heavy these days and my level of inspiration has certainly been affected by the recent discoveries around the genocide of my people at the hands of Canada and the Christian churches. I find it very challenging to share and stay in the loop on other things besides the atrocities we are experiencing and looking for ways to heal and try to find some peace. 

I recently discovered the new “Official Morrisseau” website and spent some time going over the information found on it and the presentation of that information. There are quite a few “holes” around it and I will go into exact detail on what those “holes” are. It definitely appears as though much like Canada is trying to hide their past mistakes, this website and whoever is running it is definitely trying to hide certain facts and truths as well. 

First off, in reviewing this website, they give you absolutely nothing in who the estate of Norval Morrisseau actually is. Who are the people behind this website? When it comes to VIP treatment at the site (I call bullshit on that) who are they? The decision makers on authenticating your paintings that you upload to the site, who are they? What is their knowledge and experience? Is it the estate itself? 

They proudly announce how Norval Morrisseau is the “only” native artist to have a solo exhibition at the national gallery of Canada but that already is not true. The legendary Daphne Odjig was the second native artist to have held a solo exhibition there in 2009. If your going to claim official this or official that, get the information right. This misleads the art lover, buyer and collector. It misleads everyone really. I feel super sceptical when the Information being presented doesn’t line up with the facts. That’s been the whole problem around Morrisseau. 

Problem #2 is this contact and mission statement and their constant references of academia by thanking Carmen Robertson, the NMHS, aiding them along with other so-called researchers, legal authorities and institutions alike with regard to accuracy and truth? Clarity and confidence surrounding the legacy of Norval Morrisseau and the market place? For fuck sakes eh. It’s time to get really honest about those claims. 

First - Carmen Robertson and the NMHS were too scared and afraid along with the estate of Norval Morrisseau to get directly involved in what it really took, to stand up and truly begin to set the record straight. That tireless effort was produced mainly by me, Ritchie Sinclair and John Zemanovich. It was only later that people like Dallas Thompson, Kevin hearn, jonathan summer, Tim Tait, Louise Thomas, Jessica Wilson of Westerkirk, Greg hill at the national gallery, Gerald McMaster and a few others who had hopped on board. 

Secondly - While the estate (Gabe and michelle Vadas minus Morrisseaus children at that time) and academics were pinning their hopes on the R.C.M.P. investigation, and unfortunately for Ritchie Sinclair he became the target of the other side, mainly because of the website: Morrisseau.com, this was when things changed. It was when things were looking pretty dark for us that the tide began to shift. Around this time 2010 to 2013 Dallas Thompson came into my life. And through us working together, his testimony and experiences regarding Lamont and his involvement in the fraud, this particular event had blown the doors off with regard to our investigations. 

Third - At this time we were in full swing campaigning everywhere about these fakes and what a serious problem they were. Thousands of them. All garbage. Both John, Ritchie and myself were doing the brunt of all the work concerning protection of Norvals art. Not the estate, not the NMHS, not the RCMP, not the Morrisseau family foundation, not kinsmen Robinson gallery, not the government of Canada. 

It was spearheaded by 2 true indigenous woodland artists in myself and my apprentice for 10 years in John Zemanovich, and the white Morrisseau protege from Thunder Bay in Ritchie Sinclair, all of us true believers in the spiritual power and energy in the art form, the woodland school of art, Anishanabe art, the Thunderbird school of shamanistic arts. (A Morrisseau vision)

Fourth - Give credit where credit is due. It’s embarrassing watching how people truly operate. For example how this site gives false credit to those like the NMHS and other notable academics as mentioned in regards to clarity and trust regarding the Morrisseau market? Bullshit. There wouldn’t be any clarity or investigation or anything of that nature if it wasn’t for the work being done between Dallas Thompson and I, the O.P.P. sexual assault unit and me coordinating those interviews between Lamont’s abuse survivors and the police. At this point jonathan summer was losing every court case and they had nowhere to turn. This was when he began representing kevin hearn of the Barenakedladies band. 

That was when I posted something on Ritchie Sinclair’s website about Thunder Bay and that I had some new information about the severity of this art fraud. It was also during this time that my apprentice in John Zemanovich was elected to be on the board of the NMHS. To be truthful John was having doubts about being on the board, Ritchie Sinclair was pissed off that he wasn’t chosen and for me? I loved it because it gave me access to the NMHS database and what they had in there as “authentic paintings”. It doesn’t matter what anyone will have to say about that because for me, it has always been about protecting the legacy of Norval as he had asked me to back on 2005. 

Fifth - If it wasn’t for these behind the scenes moves, little or nothing would’ve been accomplished. I flew to Thunder Bay on 4 different occasions and provided council and support for all the sexual assault survivors. No one else at that time even offered to help me. Not one. It was only a few years later that kevin hearn and John Zemanovich who made a significant contribution of their own support that helped out the cause as well. 

I will say this: As my apprentice, John Zemanovich offered more support to me than anyone else. Both him and I did all the clarification in regards to what was in the NMHS database. We got rid of what was fake in that database. I can say because of that work we did, and not the academics on the board of the NMHS, that what was is in that database and the work being done since then, gives them clarity and awareness that none of them had before. That’s a guarantee that both me, John Zemanovich and I’ll agree that Ritchie Sinclair had also had a hand in. 

I have emails from 14 years ago where the estate of Norval Morrisseau agreed that us 3 were the worlds top experts. It’s just the truth. That’s what became of our passion for Norval Morrisseau, our passion for the truth, for justice. We put ourselves out on the line every single day for almost 15 years. Any how at this point, it is imperative that the truth be told. 


I’d be suspect right away when there is zero transparency yet expectations for you to confirm and be validated by whoever is running this site. It doesn’t feel safe and open nor does it feel inclusive, as Norval Morrisseaus art and legacy should make you feel. This fake ass VIP shit is just another scam in the art world. Dont fall for it. Behind it is a world of ego feeding bullshit and a pretend world of giving you an all exclusive tour in Morrisseau land. What’s behind that bullshit is direct access to your wallet. Rolling out the red carpet Like in Hollywood, trying to make you feel all special and all....lol.

Lame as fuck. I have clients from all over the world, I don’t make them jump through loopholes and tap dances. Show up as you are. My portal to my art is an all inclusive opportunity and experience. People are tired of some secret access bullshit. Don’t hide behind all this false razzle and dazzle. It bites and nobody really wants that anymore. People want truth, honesty and transparency. The circle should always be open. That should be the desire of every artist. Not some bozo behind a computer screen.


 Another mistake this official Morrisseau site makes is in their clarity in using this book published by Kinsmen Robinson galleries and key porter books, the book: Travels to the house of invention. There is a wave of fakes that are not the black drybrush done out of toronto ont. by a fucked up guy we’ll call: P.C.

This subject matter came up with don Robinson, paul Robinson and John Newman about these particular fakes. It was witnessed one day when both my apprentice in John Zemanovich and myself made a special trip to KRG. They agreed that there would be a huge issue for them about those fakes. It would bankrupt them and utterly destroy them. That is the truth of what was said to both John and I. We had agreed that in the meantime while knowing that those P.C. fakes were a real problem, we had to put our energies towards solving those sex crimes that Gary lamont was responsible for, and going after the truth around the black drybrush shit because at that time, it was a bigger problem. 

Still, those at KRG find themselves reluctant to be honest with themselves, and the many clients who bought those P.C. fakes being sourced from Yorkville area, maslak mcleod back in the late 1980s and 1990s. Those paintings are all misrepresentations of our culture as Anishanabe because they were forged by another native artist. I mean these fakes are just as bad as this forger can’t even get the legends right like windigo for example. It’s not fish, it’s beavers. 

They are misrepresenting our culture. They are some of the worst examples of Norval Morrisseau art not only because their fake, but the legends are even being done wrong. Some of these examples can be found in travels to the house of invention. These plates were not shown to Norval. That information was confirmed by both gabe and michelle Vadas of the estate. That’s how those fakes got into the book. They can be found on page: 95, 97, 99, 101, 103, 105, 107, 109, 111, 113, 115, 117. 

I also have a serious problem with don Robinson sneaking in his fake Morrisseau in the second book: return to the house of invention, page 147 of a P.C. fake titled: Self portrait - the artist as storyteller. It’s total garbage in my books. It doesn’t represent the truth about Norval Morrisseau art. It doesn’t represent the truth about my culture. It’s an out right fuckin lie...and that’s exactly what it is. 


I’d like to also add about the reference being given in the above example by the book: professional native Indian artists inc. The group of seven, written/curated by michelle laVallee. There is a fake Morrisseau painting on page: 151 of that book titled:  White mans curse. 1969? It’s garbage. The NMHS know it as well. Because Carmen Robertson had a photo of herself taken with that painting thinking it was a real Norval Morrisseau. She was corrected by both myself, John Zemanovich and Ritchie Sinclair. That’s a fact. KRG know this as well. They have a lot of wrongs they have to correct because that piece of shit painting titled white mans curse is also in travels to the house of invention on pg: 101 of that book. It’s very interesting how those fakes pop up everywhere around KRG. 

It’s not by coincidence. It was a huge mistake to be taken by that garbage. They know it and more importantly, I fuckin know it. I am a guardian of this artform. Make no mistake about it. I have a very complete knowledge of these events and experiences. I lived them. This is the truth being told. To set the record straight because quite frankly the hardest truth I learned around this whole thing was that the colonizer has a lot of problems and issues around money, how they make it, acquire it and so forth. As we know, there is a lot of shady business in the art world. People like those at KRG are weak. They are too easy to corrupt. Too weak to speak up. Too weak period. I feel sorry for anyone who has to deal with that operation over there. It’s embarrassing. 

Any how, here is the example of that fake I just described which can be found in both of those books I mentioned. It’s garbage like this that needs to also be addressed. I would hope that any investigation that is going on would do the right thing and clean up the whole market. Otherwise, it will be an incomplete investigation. And that’s exactly how I feel about it. There are around 10 waves of fakes I’ve seen on the internet Over the years on various art auctions, shitty galleries, shitty dealers that are still trying to convince you, the art buyer that these fakes are legitimate. They are not. 

For now I will continue to open up about the truth of my experience. There are still many unanswered questions surrounding the legacy of Norval Morrisseau. I want to see real ownership take place. Real accountability. I am here to definitely hold those responsible, accountable. It is my culture that needs protection, not that of the white mans crimes and misgivings. Colonialism ends with me. Assimilation ends here. 

My hope is that Norval Morrisseau’s family and his children take ownership for their crimes. They were directly involved and need to seriously step up to the plate. I want to see KRG clean up their mess and their filthy lies. It’s gross how they behave and deceive people. Fuck your money...my culture and it’s truth deserves better than that. They should all be held accountable. The time for real truth is upon us. It’s time for the market to follow suit and rise to the occasion. And everyone else in it...

All my relations, MAJ
