Description

Aboriginal Bark Paintings by Robert Edwards and Bruce Guerin. 'This is the first book to portray a comprehensive collection of Aboriginal bark paintings in full colour together with a full-illustrated description of the manner in which they are prepared. Text and photographs show how the Aborigines select and use natural materials in a way which has changed little through the centuries, to produce paintings which, in their instinctively aesthetic treatment of traditional themes, have a universal appeal. The Aboriginal tribes have a rich heritage of art, based largely upon ceremonial and religious aspects of their lives, and there are distinctive differences in the paintings executed by by different tribes and communities. A LARGE BOOK THAT WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FREIGHT.
