In den Warenkorb1st edition. Fine printed board copy in an equally fine dust-wrapper. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Physical description; 239 p.: col. ill.; 29 cm. Notes; "Conceived for the exhibition 'Medusa. The African sculpture of enchantment' at the Musée d'ethnographie de… Genève (Switzerland) from 14th November 2008 to 30th December 2009." -- T.p. verso. "Ville de Genève, Département de la Culture." Includes bibliographical references (p. 238-239). Summary; This is a comprehensive introduction to African art and to the enchanting powers of masks and sculptures. Just as the mythological Greek figure Medusa possessed the extraordinary power of turning onlookers into stone, the stunning African artifacts, masks, and statues showcased in this fascinating book were all created to cast spells on people. The function of these objects was not merely to symbolize a person or thing, but to incarnate a magical power that could act on people and the world during religious and medicinal rituals. Mysterious and exceptionally crafted, these masks and sculptures are deciphered by African art specialist Boris Wastiau, who examines their symbolism and ritual usage, and explores the connection between the material and spiritual. Against a backdrop of allegories are more than 100 beautifully photographed works from the Museum of Ethnography in Geneva; "Medusa" is a comprehensive and accessible introduction to African art.

In den WarenkorbFirst Edition. Fine cloth copy in a near fine, very slightly edge-nicked and dust-dulled dust wrapper, now mylar-sleeved. Remains particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and sharp-cornered.; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 367 pages; Physical description; 367 pages ; 29 cm. Alongside her activities as an architect,…designer, town planner and militant, in the 1930s Charlotte Perriand (1903-1999) was also an avid photographer. Summary; Published to accompany a series of exhibitions held in Zurich, Paris and Chalon-sur-Saone.Charlotte Perriand (1903-1999) was one of the most innovative furniture and interior designers of the 20th century, long renowned for the tubular-steel chairs she created with Le Corbusier. Her career spanned nearly 75 years and included work in her native France as well as in Africa, South America, Asia, and Europe, and today her designs are highly collectable. Recently, several hundred photographic negatives were uncovered in her archives, revealing for the first time the scope of her work as a photographer. In the late 1920s, French interior and furniture designer Charlotte Perriand (1903-1999) was at the cusp of her career, just beginning her work as an architect, designer, town planner, and political militant. Starting in 1927, she turned to photography, which was to play a pivotal role in her development as a designer through the pioneering years of the modern movement. Her photographic venture ended in Japan in 1941, when the hope of a better world was shattered by WorldWar II. For Charlotte Perriand, photography was a machine for thinking, taking notes, and stirring emotions, but it was also an instrument of political engagement. Today, her photographs are a revelation, offering unseen glimpses into her creative process and intellectual development. Her photographs express the important themes and questions explored by modern artists of the day, and are part of the vast stream of avant-garde movements in which painters, architects, and photographers-and sometimes all three combined-worked together in a common spirit. Biography; Jacques Barsac has made some forty documentaries on art and historical subjects, winning twenty prizes in international festivals, including a silver medal from the Academie d'Architecture. With this book, which follows his Charlotte Perriand. Un art d'habiter (2006), he continues to explore the work of this pioneer in the twentieth-century modern movement. Francois Cheval, sociologist, anthropologist and great expert in the world of photography, is the Director of Musee Nicephore Niepce in Chalon-sur Saone, a temple of photography dedicated to the one who invented it in 1816. Alfred Paquement, curator of Monumenta 2008, has been the Director of the Musee national d'Art moderne Centre Pompidou since September 2000. Subjects; Perriand, Charlotte 1903-1999 - Exhibitions. Photography, Artistic - Exhibitions. Individual photographers. PHOTOGRAPHY / Individual Photographers / Monographs. 4 Kg.
