Form and Surface : African Ceramics from the William M. Itter Collection Hardback

Hardback

Description

This richly illustrated volume highlights one of the most significant collections of African ceramics in the United States, distinguished for its breadth and representation of women’s excellence in ceramics.

Collected by William M. Itter, Professor Emeritus of Fine Arts at Indiana University, the scope of the collection is wide-ranging.

This volume features a selection of around eighty African ceramics from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries that illustrate a range of approaches to art making.

It presents these ceramics through sections organised around topics that explore ceramics through different lenses of place, time, artistic media, and cultural identity.

These sections address issues related to cross-cultural exchange, cultural diversity, embodiment, temporality, and spirituality. Organised by the Sidney and Lois Eskenazi Museum of Art at Indiana University, this richly illustrated volume celebrates the remarkable work and contributions of women artists.
