xvi, 288 pages, 15 color and 401 b/w photographs, 16 drawings, 2 maps. A superb catalogue raisonne of more than 400 Tabwa objects in collecitons outside of Africa. It would be difficult to overpraise this superb study of the art of Tabwa of Central Africa. A catalogue raisonne (the first of its kind in African Art) of more than 400 Tabwa objects in collections outside of Africa, this volume offers an intense scrutinization of the process of change and transformation in the century that Tabwa art--developed at the crossroads of Hemba and Luba worlds--has been known to the West. An aesthetic delight (fine photographs of beautiful, seldom seen objects) and an intellectually challenging text that contains splendidly written essays.
