Pacific Art in Detail
Jennifer Newell

Price: $ 34.99 (Friends of Te Papa - $ 31.49)
Ref. No: 1015766
Dimensions: HB 215 x 215 mm

This beautiful book takes a fresh look at the wealth of art from the Pacific – from simple to ornate, domestic to sacred, traditional to contemporary. It features striking art and craft from across Polynesia, Melanesia, and Micronesia. Detailed images reveal the rich variety of styles and decorations employed by Pacific artists, past and present – and their sheer craftsmanship. Works are grouped thematically, with chapters on contemporary art, art celebrating the ocean, the art of dance, encounters between Pacific and European art traditions, and more. A perfect accompaniment to any museum or gallery visit, or an inspiring spur for creative artists.
