North American Indian Art
ISBN: 9780500203774 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Recent art historical scholarship has helped restore, to a large degree, some understanding of the identities and cultural roles of Native American artists and the social contexts of the objects they created. Native American art is often discussed simply as a cultural production rather than the work of individual artists who made objects to fufill social and cultural purposes; this book focuses as much as possible on the artists themselves, their cultural identities, and the objects they made even when the names of the individual artists remain unrecoverable But this is not a book of artists'...

ALBERT GRUNWEDEL. PREFACE: THE first edition of Professor Albert Grunwedels handbook, on Buddhistische Kunst in Indien appeared in 1893, and the hope was expressed in the Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society that the work might appear in English, as it ought to be in the hands of all antiquarians in India.

Art reinterprets Art: God, Sex, Money in Western and Indian Art
ISBN: 9781477638408 / Angielski / Miękka / 686 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As our world becomes smaller and our societies more familiar and accessible, the ideas and concepts that drive thought and expression in different cultures become a part of our lives as well.

However, modern art suggests convergences between these two ideologically disparate societies as the world becomes increasingly interconnected. This method, however, requires a close study of different, unconnected cultures from the beginning of expression through a more...

Trace Retrace: Paintings, Nilima Sheikh
ISBN: 9789382381136 / Angielski / Twarda / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Nilima Sheikh's art practice from 1969 to 2012 forms the subject of Trace Retrace. The book is structured in three parts: visual, discursive, and a combination of the two. The largest narrative is visual - a selection from Nilima Sheikh's paintings in diverse formats, chosen to signal the artist's commitment to process, and to indicate the way her paintings slide into, work with and against each other, and propose a meandering seriality. The often extensive reproduction of details from these paintings introduces the unexpected, eliciting not only a flitting or looping gaze but also...
