By Charlie_in_la (los angeles, california) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Prince Twins Seven-Seven: His Art, His Life in Nigeria, His Exile in America (African Expressive Cultures) (Hardcover)
I have been an admirer of Prince Twins Seven-Seven's art for decades, so was intrigued when I read of this book.
It provides insight into Prince's work, work methods, life, life history...I guess what I am trying to say is that it is almost like meeting him in person. I was fascinated by the descriptions of how this artist creates. I also learned much about his life (the good times and the bad times) and who he is as a person. The illustrations are beautiful; the discussions of his works insightful. While this book is about one artist, it provides a glimpse into the world of all artists. The information about Nigerian history and Yoruba culture is also of great interest. Having previewed this review, I realize that it does not convey the wealth of information and ideas the author shares. However, I will let the review stand for now. I need to go back to the book again, and again and again. cb |
