Description
This is a superbly illustrated showcase of some of the world's finest examples of Batak sculpture. It comes with dedicated mailing and e-mail campaign to targeted art and sculpture related media. The art of the Batak tribes of the mountains of northern Sumatra has been admired by collectors and scholars since the 19th century. However, only a limited number of pieces have ever been on public display. "Batak Sculpture" is a lavishly illustrated volume that showcases hundreds of previously unseen masterpieces of Batak sculpture, accompanied by insightful and illuminating text from one of the world's leading experts on Batak culture and art. A visual tour de force, this book is a must-have for anyone with an interest in Southeast Asian and Indonesian tribal arts.
