5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent overview of the sculpture of Sub-Saharan Africa,
By Steven Tatum "Old Hararian" (Blacksburg, Virginia USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: African Art from the Barbier-Mueller Collection, Geneva (Hardcover)
This book is illustrated with beautiful color and black-and-white photos of African sculpture. There are essays by scholars as well commentaries for the objects by specialists in each of the ethnic groups. It provides an excellent survey of the geographic areas and ethnic groups that, at the time the book was published, formed the core of the study of African art. It is comparable to the Metropolitan Museum of Art's exhibition catalog of the Tishman Collection (now the Smithsonian's Disney-Tishman Collection) that was published a few years earlier, only more lavishly presented.
