  • ISBN : 9789088906909
  • Pages : 519 pages

Download or read book Tiki written by Elena Govor and published by . This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Created across the six islands of a remote archipelago in eastern Polynesia, the art of the Marquesas is one of the world's most distinctive and remarkable art traditions. Though exhibited in major museums around the world, Marquesan art is nevertheless poorly understood, and the formation of collections still largely unresearched. This book documents and explores the most extensive early collection from the archipelago. In May, 1804, participants in the first Russian voyage round the world, usually known as the Krusenstern expedition after the principal commander, spent twelve days at the island of Nuku Hiva. Inspired by the science and collecting associated with the voyages of Captain James Cook, the mariners interacted with Islanders, and made extensive collections of artifacts. While the lives of the collectors and exchanges among scientists led to these artifacts being widely dispersed, the research reported here has identified some 200 objects collected during the voyage which are now in museums in Russia, Estonia, Germany, Switzerland and the Netherlands. The outcome of years of work in museum stores and archives, Tiki reassembles a collection of exceptional importance. A set of essays contextualize these precisely provenanced artifacts historically, and in the life and environment of the Marquesas Islands. For the first time, this heritage is made accessible to Islanders themselves, and to interested scholars and curators.

Download or read book Autumn s Come Undone written by Shag and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shag is an internationally acclaimed modern artist whose expertly rendered paintings are visual celebrations of life's pleasures and indulgences. His work is instantly recognizable for its trademark combination of sly humor and vibrant colors. Until now... Something's come undone. The intimate moments that have made Shag famous have been replaced by epic tableaus. Richly hued designer environments have given way to subtly desaturated expanses. Characters who were once grounded in mid-century formality are teetering on the brink of chaos. This collection of new work showcases the largest, darkest and most thought provoking images Shag has ever created. The art is distinctly Shag, but it's painted in shades of black humor.
