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.

Book excerpt: Het rijke erfgoed van gevarieerde en kleurrijke textielkunsten - weven, borduren, lussen, haken - in Guatemala is nu, door middel van dit boek, toegankelijk voor de wever van vandaag. De auteur, een professionele fotografe en schrijfster, heeft vele jaren in Midden-Amerika doorgebracht met het verzamelen van materiaal en het documenteren van de verschillende soorten stoffen die momenteel worden gemaakt. Het boek laat de mannen en vrouwen aan het werk zien die geweven kledingstukken en lappen stof maken, hun weefgetouwen en weefopstellingen en hun materialen. Er wordt speciale nadruk gelegd op de specifieke technieken die worden gebruikt om verschillende soorten stoffen te weven, met name aanvullende inslagpatronen, die lange tijd als de beste prestatie van de Guatemalteekse wevers werden beschouwd. Na een kort overzicht van de oorsprong en geschiedenis van het weven in Guatemala, bespreekt de auteur de achtergrond van het ambacht vandaag de dag, de levensstijl van de wever, het traditionele gebruik van het textiel en recente weeftrends. Het volgende hoofdstuk beschrijft de verschillende vezels die gebruikt worden in de textielproductie: hoe ze gesponnen en geverfd worden en welke soorten weefgetouwen en weefapparatuur gebruikt worden. De verschillende benaderingen van het weven in Guatemala worden beschreven en vergeleken in een lang hoofdstuk over het weven met de rugband (waaronder technieken die gebruikt worden in patroonweven, brokaat en gaas). Een hoofdstuk over weven op weefgetouwen toont de uitrusting en weeftechnieken voor onder andere platbinding, tapisserie en jacquardweven. De auteur beschrijft ook lussen, borduren, breien en haken voor het maken van tassen en netten. De conclusie beschrijft nieuwe richtingen in het weven in Guatemala. Het boek geeft zowel de glorie van de geproduceerde stoffen weer als een portret van het geduld, de vaardigheid en de veeleisende eisen van het weefambacht.
