Also known as

Ooloolah, Judas, Judas Ullulak

Judas Ullulaq (1937–1999) was a Canadian Inuk artist and sculptor whose public authority records identify him as an Inuit sculptor. Collectors most often encounter his work through sculpture, particularly compositions centered on human, animal, or combined figural forms. A documented 1991 untitled sculpture in whale bone illustrates one material found in his carved work, although that single object is not a complete account of his practice. Library and vocabulary records connect the preferred name Judas Ullulaq with variants including Ooloolah, Judas and Judas Ullulak, which can help reconcile catalogue and auction entries. The available sources do not establish a named art movement, formal series, or exact birth and death dates, so this page uses the verified years and avoids a more specific chronology. Ullulaq's work appears in appraisal contexts chiefly as Inuit sculpture, where artist identity, subject, material, and object-specific documentation need to be considered together.

Common works and media

Ullulaq is documented primarily as a sculptor. The available biographical source characterizes his work as mainly figural and zoomorphic, so auction listings may present human figures, animals, or combined forms. The source pack also documents a 1991 untitled whale-bone sculpture. That example confirms whale bone as one material he used, not as a complete inventory of his media. No reliable evidence in this pack establishes paintings, prints, editions, ceramics, posters, or named series.

Market and appraisal context

For appraisal, first establish whether the object fits Ullulaq's documented sculptural practice and whether its subject is figural, animal-based, or a combination of forms. Material identification also matters: the source pack documents at least one 1991 whale-bone sculpture, but it does not establish whale bone as universal or dominant across his output. Catalogue-name matching should account for authority-file variants such as Ooloolah and Ullulak. The present source pack contains no accessible major-auction-house biography or comparable-sale detail, so it cannot support a price trend, market direction, or blanket value range. A defensible valuation therefore requires object-level documentation and relevant public auction comparables beyond this identity research.

Auction categories and appraisal factors

Common auction categories

  • Inuit sculpture
  • Figural and zoomorphic sculpture

Value drivers

  1. Consistency with Ullulaq's documented sculptural practice and figural or zoomorphic subject matter
  2. Identification of the carving material, including whether an object is whale bone
  3. Reconciliation of catalogue entries filed under authority-record name variants such as Ooloolah or Ullulak

Appraisal caveats

  • The collected source pack contains no accessible sale-level results from a major auction house, so it does not support price trends, price predictions, or a general value range.
  • The documented 1991 whale-bone sculpture establishes one material example but does not demonstrate that whale bone was universal or dominant across the artist's output.
  • Object-level attribution and valuation require evidence beyond the identity and biographical sources in this pack.
