Insights into West Mexican Art,
By Mexican Traveler "Steve" (Las Vegas, NV) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Heritage of Power: Ancient Sculpture from West Mexico: The Andrall E. Pearson Family Collection (Metropolitan Museum of Art Series) (Paperback)
An important aspect to this catalog is the excellent photography by Justin Kerr. Many of the sculptures have not been previously published - and for those that have - references are provided. Outstanding descriptions of each work include dimensions, construction techniques, etc. "Heritage of Power" is a welcome addition to the few books that focus on the ceramic art of West Mexico, since the Von Winning publications of the 1970s. The author interprets the ceramic sculptures using the latest archaeological findings on kinship and ancestor worship in ancient West Mexico. The combination of insightful text and the Justin Kerr photography makes this book a worthwhile addition to anyone working in Mexican prehistory.
