2004108409Munich: Prestel 2004. Softcover. As new. BASEMENT. Glossy illus. wraps with yellow lettering and spine; 301 pp. with profuse color illustrations. This is a paperback edition. An in-depth look at one of the US's most extensive collections of African art within the context of the the works' original rituals. I give this book 5 stars because it's clear the author charted his own path here and it makes for an interesting book on African art. There are other books with higher quality photos slicker paper that are more "artistic" coffee table material. I love them.not all but often if they aren't reprinting the same common photo examples. Howeverhere the author really takes you into the village introduces you to the tribal members and you vicariously participate in the dance. It's not only interesting but it's a record of a way of life that may not be around too much longer. You'll even find out what a heddle pully is and why it's important. You don't get that in the artistic coffee table book! Jim Gwin. Prestel unknown books

"Drawing on The Baltimore Museum's renowned African Collection this illustrated exploration of African rituals uniquely encourages readers to look beyond the solitary artifact and toward an understanding of African music and dance as fully sensory experiences." "The one hundred objects presented here are parts of ceremonies that rely on sounds sights smells and tastes to deliver their ultimate effects. Color reproductions of the objects including masks sculpture and ceramics are accompanied by brief essays explaining the contexts within which each was created. The essays focus on costumes; dance movement and gesture; music and other sounds; storytelling; audiences; staging and lighting. Field photographs and archival images help bring to life the African ceremonial experience which we can better understand with the aid of this groundbreaking work."--BOOK JACKET.

2011263455Spoleto: Archivio Fotografico 2011. Two related items in a clever slipcase cum snap-closer box: largely captioned portrait and group photography b&w only in the Gian Carlo Menotti honor-fest vivid color in book devoted to Carla Fendi. Neither volume paginated Fendi's is lengthy and bound in laminated colorphoto boards the Menotti in openweave black cloth and dust jacket and much shorter. Item shows very classy upper-class doings the men in formal attire the women quite variously dressed there are g-strings for burly-que fun. Readers musically in tune will recognize many faces here this cataloguer was merely Oooo! Pavarotti! Both Menotti and Fendi make people open up; he for example is the only party host who ever publicly drew out Jackie Onassis' reserve; his congrats to her on RFK's win in the 1968 CA primary was met with her flairing "Why they will just kill him like they killed my husband" a remark that made European media but not here.
