Book Synopsis Costumes et parures du Maroc by : Rachida Alaoui
Download or read book Costumes et parures du Maroc written by Rachida Alaoui and published by www.acr-edition.com. This book was released on 2003 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le burnous, le caftan, la jellaba, le haïk, etc., témoignent du rayonnement du costume citadin marocain à travers le temps. L'épanouissement des traditions vestimentaires à partir de l'héritage andalou et de la mode hispano-mauresque n'a pas manqué de susciter l'admiration des voyageurs et des ambassadeurs occidentaux du XVIe au XVIIIe siècle, et la mode orientale a conquis les romantiques du XIXe siècle aussi bien que Matisse au siècle suivant. Par la richesse et la diversité de l'ornementation spécifique à chaque région, par l'éclat des couleurs des étoffes et leur luxe, les vêtements masculins et féminins excellent dans le raffinement et l'élégance. Les ateliers de Fès, Tétouan, Meknès, Rabat ont produit les plus beaux caftans, les tissages les plus somptueux, notamment pour les costumes de mariées aussi musulmanes que juives. Le faste vestimentaire n'est complet qu'avec l'art de la parure en or, déclinant le bijou sous toutes ses formes, diadèmes, pendants d'oreilles, parures de temps, boucles, fibules, bagues, colliers, bracelets, anneaux de cheville. Cet artisanat de luxe perdure aujourd'hui à travers un renouveau des bijoux et du tissage, porté par l'essor de la haute couture marocaine, née il y a une vingtaine d'années pour maintenir et vivifier ce patrimoine précieux. De forme immuable, le costume traditionnel n'a cessé d'évoluer, dans les tissus, les couleurs et les motifs, pour intégrer les influences étrangères - orientales, andalouses, ottomanes, européennes enfin - mais a toujours su, en dépit de la modernité et de l'apparition du costume occidental, sauvegarder sa place prédominante et son sens social. Cette vitalité particulière n'a pas échappé aux grands couturiers français, tels Mariano Fortuny, Paul Poiret et Yves Saint Laurent qui, plongeant dans les coupes colorées et originales, l'ornementation et les motifs décoratifs de l'artisanat marocain, ont été irrésistiblement influencés par la splendeur envoûtante du costume du Maroc.
Book Synopsis Berbers and Others by : Katherine E. Hoffman
Download or read book Berbers and Others written by Katherine E. Hoffman and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Berbers and Others offers fresh perspectives on new forms of social and political activism in today's Maghrib. In recent years, the Amazigh (Berber) movement has become a focus of widespread political, social, and cultural attention in North Africa, Europe, and the United States. Berber groups have peacefully yet persistently laid claim to ownership over broad areas of creativity in the arts, politics, literature, education, and national memory. The contributors to this volume present some of the best new thinking in the emerging field of Berber studies, offering insight into historical antecedents, language usage, land rights, household economies, artistic production, and human rights. The scope, depth, and multidisciplinary approach will engage specialists on the Maghrib as well as students of ethnicity, social and political change, and cultural innovation.

Download or read book Morocco written by Lynda Cohen Cassanos and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-11-17 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early Arab geographers referred to Morocco as Al-Maghreb al-Aqsa-"the farthest land of the setting sun." Today this country in the northwest corner of Africa-long a crossroads for trade from Europe, sub-Saharan Africa, and the East-retains a distinctly exotic feel, with its colorful mix of Middle Eastern, African, and Western cultures. But Morocco is also a nation struggling to emerge from a difficult colonial past and a recent history of human-rights violations. If the country succeeds in its quest to develop stable and democratic political institutions as well as a vibrant economy-and to accomplish these goals without violence-Morocco may serve as a powerful example to the Arab world. Discusses the geography, history, economy, government, religion, people, foreign relations, and major cities of Morocco.

Built on the acclaimed scholarship of the Grove Dictionary of Art, this work offers over 1,600 up-to-date entries on Islamic art and architecture ranging from the Middle East to Central and South Asia, Africa, and Europe and spans over a thousand years of history. Recent changes in Islamic art in areas such as Afghanistan, Iran, and Iraq are elucidated here by distinguished scholars. Entries provide in-depth art historical and cultural information about dynasties, art forms, artists, architecture, rulers, monuments, archaeological sites and stylistic developments. In addition, over 500 illustrations of sculpture, mosaic, painting, ceramics, architecture, metalwork and calligraphy illuminate the rich artistic tradition of the Islamic world. With the fundamental understanding that Islamic art is not limited to a particular region, or to a defined period of time, The Grove Encyclopedia of Islamic Art and Architecture offers pathways into Islamic culture through its art.

Book Synopsis Creating African Fashion Histories by : JoAnn McGregor
Download or read book Creating African Fashion Histories written by JoAnn McGregor and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creating African Fashion Histories examines the stark disjuncture between African self-fashioning and museum practices. Conventionally, African clothing, textiles, and body adornments were classified by museums as examples of trade goods, art, and ethnographic materials—never as "fashion." Counterposing the dynamism of African fashion with museums' historic holdings thus provides a unique way of confronting ways in which coloniality persists in knowledge and institutions today. This volume brings together an interdisciplinary group of scholars and curators to debate sources and approaches for constructing African fashion histories and to examine their potential for decolonizing museums, fashion studies, and global cultural history. The editors of this volume seek to answer questions such as: How can researchers use museum collections to reveal traces of past self-fashioning that are obscured by racialized forms of knowledge and institutional practice? How can archival, visual, oral, ethnographic, and online sources be deployed to capture the diversity of African sartorial pasts? How can scholars and curators decolonize the Eurocentric frames of thinking encapsulated in historic collections and current curricula? Can new collections of African fashion decolonize museum practice? From Moroccan fashion bloggers to upmarket Lagos designers, the voices in this ground-breaking collection reveal fascinating histories and geographies of circulation within and beyond the continent and its diasporic communities.
Book Synopsis Islamic Art in the 19th Century by : Doris Behrens-Abouseif
Download or read book Islamic Art in the 19th Century written by Doris Behrens-Abouseif and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2006 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays provides a timely reassessment of nineteenth-century Islamic art and architecture. The essays demonstrate that the arts of that era were vibrant and diverse, making ingenious use of native traditions and materials or adopting imported conventions and new technologies. However, traditionalists, revivalists and modernists all referred in one way or another to an Islamic heritage, whether to reinvent, revive or reject it. Beginning with an historical introduction and an assessment of changing attitudes towards the visual arts the following essays provide case studies of architecture and art in Ottoman Turkey, Egypt, Morocco, sub-Saharan Africa, Iran, Central Asia, India and the Caribbean. They examine such issues as patronage, sources of artistic inspiration and responses to European art. The essays have a relevance and importance for our understanding of the societies and attitudes of that time, and have a direct bearing on the more general debate concerning cultural identity and the integration of modern ideas in the Muslim world. The book is richly illustrated with very many illustrations in black-and-white and in full colour.
