Description
This remarkably unusual and beautifully illustrated book is a turning point in the history of African art. The authors rely on personal recollections, interviews and oral histories to present twelve “case histories” objects – or groups of objects – from the collection of renowned Seattle Art Museum of African Art. Each case history is enriched by the artists comments, art historians, writers, community members, and patrons that guides readers back in the markets, palaces, ceremonies, shrines, and the streets where African origin art.
