"In producing the prsent exhibition and catalogue, Collecting African Art 1890s - 1950s, I have tried to select objects which are not only exceptional aesthetically, but also have provenance, collection history, or offer other reliable clues about their age or probable period of creation. This exhibition contains many works which have not been seen publicly for nearly half a century. During the past 15 years Hurst Gallery has mounted several exhibitions of oceanic art in which documented pieces were numerous. New England, with its history of over 200 years contact with the cultures of the Pacific and the Far East, has often yielded single pieces or entire collections from those regions with their provenance more or less intact. African objects with such collection histories are rarer. The acquistition of the African objects from the Harry Levine collection, all 17 of which were collected before 1949, has facilitated this exhibition. Most of the other objects, acquired individually in America and aborad, have either some collection history or are stylistacally similar to documented pieces elsewhere." - from the foreward by Norman Hurst ISBN 9780962807442 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 248 21,0 x 0,6 x 28,6 cm, Taschenbuch.
