Fuhrmann, Ernst; New Guinea: People and Art
This work is the first English translation of a German introductory text published
by the well-known publisher Folkwang Verlag in Hagen in 1922.
The book is
based on photographs of art collections in the major museums of Europe and
includes a special section on the ornamental designs of New Guinea. Sculpture
and ‘body art’, before the term was reinvented, are documented in detail. Art
forms such as masks, furniture and house structures are also included.
The
introduction places this art in its everyday context and discusses beliefs related
to the use of artifacts.
Much of what is shown here has so far only been preserved
in the museum collections on which the book was based.
