Paperback. Condition: Good. No Jacket. The Toledo Museum of Art has a small but choice collection of the art of sub-Saharan Africa. Collecting began in 1958 with a Benin Queen Mother head and a Fang mask that once belonged to artist Maurice Vlaminck. This book combines up-to-date scholarship with field photographs and selections from African literature. We hope readers will enjoy the process of turning toward, confronting, and connectingwith the art and people of Africa. Notes; Index. Piece(s) of the spine missing. Solid binding.

Published by Published for the Detroit Institute of Arts by the Smithsonian Institution Press, Washington, DC, 1995
ISBN 10: 1560986026ISBN 13: 9781560986027
Book
Softcover. Condition: VG. Black wraps. 180 pp. 88 color plates. Includes essays by Micahel Kan and Roy Sieber. Describes and illustrates 88 works. Very nice catalogue of the collection. African Masterworks in the Detroit Institute of Arts showcases eighty-eight of the museum's finest works, representing the full range of major sub-Saharan sculptural traditions during the past three centuries: figures, masks, containers, carved stools, jewelry, and musical instruments. As noted in the introductory material, almost all African art has a functional base - each sculpture's primary justification is its effectiveness as a ritual or utilitarian object. Text accompanying each photograph describes not only the circumstances, when known, of the object's creation, but also the harmonious interplay of its aesthetic features and cultural and spiritual function. The catalogue also details the rituals surrounding the religious objects and the social importance of the secular works. Organized by region, from the western Sudan to southern Africa, the book includes essays on the history of each area, as well as maps and an extensive bibliography. Michael Kan, the curator of the collection, provides a history of the museum's African art acquisitions since 1900, and the introduction by Roy Sieber traces the evolution of Western appreciation for African art, describing also the value placed on the objects by the community from which they arose.

Book
relié. Condition: D'OccasionBonétat. Cinq Continents, collection "Visions d'Afrique", 2007, grand in/8, reliure souple de l'éditeur, 145 pages. Illustrations en couleurs et en noir. Cette publication développe, parmi les thèmes majeurs, le rôle des arts visuels et des performances ainsi que l instrumentalisation des insignes royaux dans le cadre de la politique traditionnelle des Luba. Le texte fournit également des explications sur le symbolisme des images de la femme, la féminité du roi, la résolution des problèmes et les processus de guérison. Enfin, il aborde le phénomène de l utilisation des objets d art dans la création et la transmission de la connaissance historique tant au coeur du pays luba que dans sa périphérie. Des études de cas observés au cours des nombreuses recherches de terrain des auteurs viennent éclairer le système philosophique que sous-tendent la pensée et l expression visuelle des Luba.
