Descrizione libro Condizione: Gut. 128 S.; zahlr. Illustr.; 24,5 cm; kart. Gutes Ex., Einband minimal berieben. - Englisch. - With 40 colour and 60 black and white illustrations. / Paula Girshick Ben-Amos is Associate Professor in the Department of Anthropology, Indiana University. She has been conducting research in Benin since 1966 and has published books and articles on Benin art. . In this revised and updated edition of The Art of Benin, Paula Girshick Ben-Amos explains the role played by art in every aspect of Benin life: at the court, in private homes, in the urban capital and in the villages. Drawing on oral traditions, archaeological discoveries, travellers' accounts going back to the sixteenth century and her own research in Nigeria she describes how the ancient art of Benin emerged under the patronage of successive obas (kings). Social, political and religious innovations brought about developments in style, and ideas and motifs from neighbouring African peoples and from Europe were absorbed over time without changing the essential character of one of the world's most exciting and vibrant art traditions.
