Murray Whyte gives a positive critique on the various works created by First Nations artist, Terrance Houle. Whyte pays particular attention to Houle's most recent works that focus on performance, video and installation, specifically Iinniiwahkiimah: Buffalo Hunter and All For You. Although Houle is amongst a great deal of talented First Nations artists in Canada, Whyte warrants his work as being on the forefront. Houle continues to tackle the tensions between First Nations culture and the contemporary Canadian mainstream, but continues to do so with humor and an optimistic perspective.
