Seller's Description:
VG. Black cloth, off-white & illus. dust jacket, 208 pp., 138 color illus., 9 BW illus. "How the unique 'look' of African art captured the imagination of artists such as Picasso and Stieglitz is well known. But how do art aficionados today see African objects? And how does our view compare with the way these objects were seen in Africa? Presenting this magnificent collection for the first time, [this book] discusses the different ways these works were viewed in their birthplace, and hwo our vision of them is shaped by the 'ethnographic, ' 'primitive, ' or 'modern' labels that have been applied in the West." (dj) With essays by Suzanne Preston Blier, Christraud M. Geary, and Edmund Barry Gaither. The annotated and illustrated catalogue addresses 105 pieces from various areas of the continent. Includes a bibliography.
