Pub Year 2004, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> This publication commemorates the ninetieth anniversary of The Baltimore Museum of Art?s founding and the fiftieth anniversary of the donation of the African art collection by Janet and Alan Wurtzburger. Their contribution established a permanent display of African art within the museum, highlighting a significant commitment to this field amidst the institution's ongoing expansion.The Wurtzburger gift reinforced a trajectory initiated by the museum's exhibition programme, beginning with the 1936 exhibition, African Negro Art, and followed by An Exhibition of African Art in 1946, noted for showcasing African art from American collections. Prior to the Wurtzburger's donation, significant contributions included ancient Egyptian and Coptic pieces from Florence Levy and Blanche Adler, alongside numerous gifts from collectors like Saidie A. May and Robert Garrett, which enriched the museum?s offerings.Exploring the aesthetic appreciation for African art, the Wurtzburgers joined a tradition exemplified by other collectors, such as the renowned Cone sisters, who recognised the artistic value of African objects in the context of modern art movements. The collection has continued to grow through the contributions of various donors, including Mr. and Mrs. A. Harvey Schreyer and numerous others, who have provided an extensive array of artefacts that significantly enrich the museum?s narrative.Principal author Dr. Frederick John Lamp has meticulously curated a selection of objects from diverse geographical and cultural contexts across Africa. This collection encompasses various media, including ceramics, textiles, beadwork, and ritual art, chosen for both their aesthetic merit and cultural significance.

Illustrationen, Karten. ; 31 cm Buch in sehr guter Erhaltung, Einband vorwiegend sauber und unbestoßen, Seiten hell und sauber, ohne Einträge, Buchblock fest, Schutzumschlag gut, schwach lagerspurig, Art of the Baga: A Drama of Cultural Reinvention traces the art and cultural history of these very special African people from their legendary flight from the mystical highlands of the interior of Guinea to the coast, in their attempt to conserve their own religious ritual, to the eventual destruction of their traditions at mid century with the conversion to Islam and, with independence from France, the establishment of the Republic of Guinea under an iconoclastic Marxist regime. In the book, the Baga voice is heard prominently in the direct testimony of three Baga writers and forty Baga consultants of all ages and background experience, from ten-year-old boys to elders and ritual leaders of over 100 years of age. Artistic creation and reinvention form the core of issues raised throughout the art historical drama. 0 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 1950.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This is the first full-color guide to the state of Connecticut by road bike for the moderate-level rider. It will also be useful to anyone looking for scenic routes throughout the state, although bicycle riding affords the luxury of a slower pace in the open air. With an introduction to riding and to the resources available, the book covers six diverse geographical regions of Connecticut in fifty rides. Each ride is represented by a four-page spread with color photographs of the sights, a narrative description, a map, and a concise cue sheet with directions and mileage. The rides focus on the rich historical sites; the enterprise of Connecticut's people; and the great natural resources of the Long Island Sound, Connecticut's rivers, lakes, creeks, and the hills of the Berkshires. Routes also take you through farms, picturesque small villages, city streets, forests, and bogs to view the flora and fauna of the state.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This study of the wooden Serpent figures/headdresses of the Baga people of Guinea is a collaboration by the author, as an art historian, with many contributions from diverse perspectives, including scientists preeminent in their fields, Robert J. Koestler, Roy Sieber, Dennis William Stevenson, Mark T. Wypyski, and Peter J. Zanzucchi. The text begins with a thorough exploration of the ethnological and art historical evidence for the Serpent masquerade among the Baga of Guinea, bearing an immense wooden serpent figure on top of the head representing a python. Never witnessed or photographed by an outsider, it disappeared in the 1950s along with most ritual performance after an Islamic jihad instated strict prohibitions against indigenous religions. The ritual context is followed by an in-depth analysis of the Serpent masquerade figures now extant in collections in Europe, the Americas, and Africa, as well as other representations of the python in the ritual art of the region. The final sections present the arguments, as a debate, between interested persons in the arts, including art historians, dealers, appraisers, collectors, and curators, and the scientific examinations by specialists in botany, chemistry, physics, entomology, and conservation concerning one particular Serpent figure in question.
