Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These fourteen essays address controversies over a variety of cultural properties, exploring them from perspectives of law, archeology, physical anthropology, ethnobiology, ethnomusicology, history, and cultural and literary study. The book divides cultural property into three types: Tangible, unique property like the Parthenon marbles; intangible property such as folktales, music, and folk remedies; and communal "representations," which have lead groups to censor both outsiders and insiders as cultural traitors.

Download or read book Northwest Coast Indian Art written by Bill Holm and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 50th anniversary edition of this classic work on the art of Northwest Coast Indians now offers color illustrations for a new generation of readers along with reflections from contemporary Northwest Coast artists about the impact of this book. The masterworks of Northwest Coast Native artists are admired today as among the great achievements of the world’s artists. The painted and carved wooden screens, chests and boxes, rattles, crest hats, and other artworks display the complex and sophisticated northern Northwest Coast style of art that is the visual language used to illustrate inherited crests and tell family stories. In the 1950s Bill Holm, a graduate student of Dr. Erna Gunther, former Director of the Burke Museum, began a systematic study of northern Northwest Coast art. In 1965, after studying hundreds of bentwood boxes and chests, he published Northwest Coast Indian Art: An Analysis of Form. This book is a foundational reference on northern Northwest Coast Native art. Through his careful studies, Bill Holm described this visual language using new terminology that has become part of the established vocabulary that allows us to talk about works like these and understand changes in style both through time and between individual artists’ styles. Holm examines how these pieces, although varied in origin, material, size, and purpose, are related to a surprising degree in the organization and form of their two-dimensional surface decoration. The author presents an incisive analysis of the use of color, line, and texture; the organization of space; and such typical forms as ovoids, eyelids, U forms, and hands and feet. The evidence upon which he bases his conclusions constitutes a repository of valuable information for all succeeding researchers in the field. Replaces ISBN 9780295951027

Download or read book Polynesia written by Adrienne L. Kaeppler and published by Mauna Kea Galleries. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 4e de couv.: Considered one of the most significant and comprehensive assemblages of Polynesian works, the Blackburn Collection of Polynesian Art contains objects from nearly every area of Polynesia from Hawaii to Rapa Nui (Easter Island) to Aotearoa (New Zealand), and the many islands in between. The traditional forms are both ceremonial and functional from delicate ivory ornaments and finely textured barkcloth to formidable weaponry and imposing sculpture in coral, wood, and stone. Adrienne L. Kaeppler sets the Blackburn Collection of Polynesian Art the larger context of Polynesian cultural and artistic traditions in her illustrated introduction and suite of essays featuring significant objects from the collection. Selected paintings, drawings, engravings, photographs, documents, and medals related to Polynesia provide additional cultural and historical context. Following the essay is a fully illustrated catalog of the collection organized by island area. In Polynesia, the visual arts and associated objects serve as physical representations of the underlying aesthetic, social, and religious aspects of island cultures. In some cases, the eloquent objects here may be all that remain of once-vibrant traditions.
