Hard Cover. Etat : Near Fine. Photo Cover / Abraham Anghik Ruben (illustrateur). First Edition. -------------( 1st printing of the First Edition ) ---hardcoves, a Near Fine example, no dustjackets as issued, 112 pages, colour photos throughout, ---"Like the Rockwell collection, the sculpture of contemporary Inuit artist Abraham Ruben brings together ancient and contemporary worlds. Ruben uses the veil of time to examine Native identity in dramatic fashion. His hypnotic art contrasts two ancient peoples the Norse and the Inuit who helped shaped the complex history of the modern-day North American Arctic. Ruben combines high-level technical mastery of a several difficult media bone, stone, ivory and bronze with ethereal, almost hallucinatory, imagery. This contradictory combination of solid material and dream-like figures is at the core of what interests me about Ruben's work. The physicality of Ruben's work creates a solid connection to the contemporary world of the Inuit, while his imagery, drawn from Inuit and Norse mythology, connects his work to the mythic and spiritual world of the far North Country. The effect is electrifying, familiar yet dissonant. This is art at its finest."---, any image directly beside this listing is the actual book and not a generic photo ///NOT SIGNED ---GUARANTEED to be AVAILABLE ///---sizes are approximate (generally within 1/8 inch)--- Size: 8.5w x 11h Inches.
