Paperback. Zustand: Good. To the developed world, the destruction of the Amazon rainforest has become an issue of vital concern. The ever-diminishing indigenous tribes inhabiting this vast region of beauty are equally threatened. Yet while the Western passion for folk art continues to thrive, the extraordinary creations of the peoples of the Amazon have until now received little attention. This book is their definitive documentation. A variety of objects both ceremonial and utilitarian are illustrated in over 150 specially commissioned photographs - exotic headresses, feather dance costumes, anteater masks, body ornaments of all kinds, ceramics, basketry and weapons - while the text defines the anthropological significance of each artifact. The objects embody a wealth of natural materials, from iridescent beetle wings and plumage, to animal teeth and woods - surviving expressions of a fragile environment.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Though much attention has been given to the connection between modern art and primitive African forms, the impact of Pre-Columbian sources on contemporary artists has been left largely unexplored. This study aims to correct that oversight by examining five seminal modern artists and the pre-Columbian inspirations for their work. The author also examines the art of Paul Gauguin and its debt to ancient Peruvian ceramics, the murals of Diego Rivera and their ideological and visual relation to Aztec imagery and the Constructivist paintings of Joaquin Torres-Garcia and their connection to ancient Peruvian textiles, ceramics and architecture. Braun reveals as well that the work of more contemporary artists, such as Louise Nevelson, Alfred Jensen, Tony Smith, Robert Smithson and Ken Price continues to be indebted to Pre-Columbian forms and ideas.…
