Paperback. Condizione: New. The latest volume in The Met's How to Read series, focusing on the rich and varied textiles of Africa through forty exemplars from the nineteenth century to the present day   Historically, handwoven cloth and clothing made across the African continent have been labor-intensive creations deeply embedded in local and regional value systems. These fabrics, frequently adapted to communal and individual needs, serve to clothe the body, divide architectural space, protect physical = and spiritual well-being, and convey wealth and authority. This volume in The Met's acclaimed How to Read series features forty masterworks of African fiber arts, from a dynamic nineteenth-century interior hanging from Sierra Leone to a dreamlike textile canvas by a contemporary Malagasy artist. Authors Christine Giuntini and Jenny Peruski explore the complex histories of production, consumption, and exchange attached to these extraordinary works; contextualize long-standing and recently embraced techniques and materials; and offer readers new ways to appreciate Africa's diverse textile traditions.   Published by The Metropolitan Museum of Art/Distributed by Yale University Press.…

Le dernier volume de la série « How to Read » du Met, axé sur les textiles riches et variés d?Afrique à travers quarante exemples du XIXe siècle à nos jours. Historiquement, les tissus et vêtements tissés à la main à travers le continent africain ont été des créations à forte intensité de main-d??uvre, profondément ancrées dans les systèmes de valeurs locaux et régionaux. Ces tissus, fréquemment adaptés aux besoins collectifs et individuels, servent à vêtir le corps, à diviser l?es- pace architectural, à protéger le bien-être physique et spirituel, et à transmettre la richesse et l?autorité. Ce volume de la série acclamée du Met, How to Read, présente quarante chefs-d??uvre des arts de la fibre africains, d?une tenture intérieure dynamique du XIXe siècle de Sierra Leone à une toile textile onirique d?un artiste malgache contemporain. Les auteurs Christine Giuntini et Jenny Peruski explorent les histoires complexes de production, de consommation et d?échange attachées à ces ?uvres extraordinaires ; contex- tualisent les techniques et les matériaux de longue date et récemment adoptés ; et offrent aux lecteurs de nouvelles façons d?apprécier les diverses traditions textiles de l?Afrique.…
