Condizione: neu. Erstausgabe; OKart., 283 Seiten mit zahlr. farb. Abb., gr.-4° (24,5 x 28,5 cm), neu, originalverpackt. // hardback, 283 pages, abundantly illustrated, large 4to, brand-new copy. "A book of true stories told by the 'last' prominent cannibal Papuan tribal chiefs and the authentic record of communication during the symbolic 'Final First Contact'. For thousands of years, stories like these have been part of the tribes' oral tradition, passed down from generation to generation. This book /richly supplemented with black and white photographs/ is the first ever transcription of authentic recorded interviews, conducted with the final indigenous tribespeople before their primeval culture is forever changed by globalisation. The first-person accounts describe the tribesmen's true stories, at least from their point of view: for them, there is no distinction between the natural and the supernatural - everything is equally real. Until now, 'first contacts' have been a matter of power, violence, the expansion of territories and spheres of influence /but our country has never colonized others/ and there are testimonies of prospectors, missionaries, soldiers, and anthropologists about the now extinct animist cultures, without the natives telling their own stories. The first contact with the last natural nations had never previously been made by artists, despite the fact that it was a Meeting of Cultures. This is an expanded version of the book Why the Night is Black, the first edition of which won the 2005 Magnesia Litera Award for Discovery of the Year." Book Language/s: Czech, English.…

Condizione: neu. Erstausgabe; OKart. (laminiert), 370 Seiten mit zahlr. Illustrationen, gr.-4° (24,5 x 28,5 cm), neu, originalverpackt. // hardback, 370 pages, abundantly illustrated, large 4to, brand-new copy. "The book Super by multimedia artist Barbora ?lapetová is based on true stories and repeated encounters with the most prominent Papuan cannibal chiefs, who until recently lived on the level of the Stone Age and, like their ancestors travelled by using smoke to the upper levels of the Earth and lived surrounded by good and evil spirits. Over the years, the Yali Mek tribal chiefs expressed their wish to meet the greatest Czech chief; gain a deeper understanding of what artists do; or meet those who could fly up to the space just like their tribal magicians. And so the primeval chiefs met President Václav Havel; had their real bodies transformed into artworks; and met astronauts Leroy Chiao and Koichi Wakata. This historical dialogue of cultures has thus become - even with the rituals of the indigenous peoples - a contemporary art happening and, through animations, films, photographs and paintings, a visual probe into the souls of the last natural beings before globalisation changes them forever."
