Geertz (anthropology, Princeton U.) presents Balinese pen-and-ink pictures made between 1936 and 1938, made under the influence of two European artists and using Western materials and forms, but depicting the world of Balinese folktales, ritual drama, and dreams. Geertz probes the Balinese notion of mystical power and sorcery, and examines the relationship between the collected paintings and the tourist art in less remote villages. Includes b&w photos as well as the paintings, painter's profiles, and a glossary. A beautiful book. 9x12". Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
