Book excerpt: "Guatemala is a land of contrasts: stunning mountain, river, and cloud forest landscapes with the constant threat of volcanic eruptions, mudslides, earthquakes, and brutal upheavals. Against this backdrop, the indigenous Maya and their Ladino compatriots persist in creating some of the loveliest and most colorful textiles the world has known. Their weaving, spinning, and basketmaking have sustained them economically and culturally against the pressures of change and a thirty-six year armed conflict that decimated their population. In Traditional Weavers of Guatemala, twenty artisans share their personal histories, hopes, and dreams along with the products of their hands and looms"--Inside cover.

An international array of scholars and experts examines the cultural context, aesthetic preoccupations, and diverse themes of art from the viceregal period, particularly the florid patternings and the fanciful beasts and hybrid creatures that have come to characterize colonial Andean art."--Jacket.
