About this title

Synopsis

Hunt Kahlenberg, Mary

Reviews

This volume highlights 250 of the 2500 works of art collected by Lloyd Cotsen, former chair of the Neutrogena Corporation, which are currently on view in the new Neutrogena Wing of the Museum of International Folk Art in Santa Fe, NM. Kahlenberg, former curator of the Textile and Costume Department at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, worked with Cotsen to build the collection over a period of 35 years. Fascinated by artistic expression, Cotsen selected objects created throughout the world by both skilled and unskilled artisans and crafters working in different media, including textiles, ceramics, wood, straw, and paper. Either ceremonial or functional in nature, these pieces are organized geographically and discussed by various scholars, who detail their history as well as their aesthetics. Beautifully photographed, this title is recommended for larger public libraries with specialized collections.?Judith Yankielun Lind, Roseland Free P.L., NJ
