A propos de cet article

252 pages : illustrations (some colour), maps ; 28 cm. "This is the first comprehensive book to cover many important aspects of black South African art, from the traditional to Township Art. It is dedicated by the authors to all artists of Africa, past and present, who have sought to express the significance of things in objects of great beauty. Completely up to date, it contains sections on San Rock Art, Venda Court Art, Ndzundza Wall Decorations in the Transvaal, Images of Township Art, Street Art in the Townships and the Polly Street Art Centre. As the work of black artists is sought by collectors here and overseas, more people become aware of symbols and themes used; serious students add constantly to the sum of this knowledge. The future will bring an even greater depth of insight into the evolution of the African artistic tradition to which this book will have contributed.".
