Colors of Africa
Description:
Reflecting the vibrancy of their landscapes and the richness of their flora and fauna, the cultures and arts of Africa are marked by an appreciation of color that still pervades much of everyday life. The Dinka of southern Sudan draw on the subtle shades and patterns found on the prize cattle they herd. The Basotho women punctuate the bleak landscape of the veldt country with their vivid murals, painted to invoke the renewing rains. African perspectives on color and the meanings of colors are explored and illustrated in Colors of Africa through accounts of the natural world, beads and jewelry, buildings and murals, textiles and dress, body painting and contemporary fashion. Dr. Duncan Clarke also documents the rich folk tradition of weaving and textiles in The Art of African Textiles (ISBN 1-57145-132-3).
