About this product

Product Information

All over the world, folk artists are making use of discarded and recycled materials. Focusing on the folk-art practices of several cultures, this book celebrates the work of the artists involved and explores the environments in which they live and work. For the artists and craftspeople featured, heaps of disposable packaging and obsolete junk are raw materials with endless potential, whether their motivation is to satisfy a creative vision, entertain and teach children, perform a ceremonial function, or address an economic necessity. The book reveals tin-can briefcases and toys made by Senegalese artisans; tyre-tread sandals, tin-can lanterns and licence-plate dustpans from Mexico; ceremonial headdresses from Ecuador adorned with light-bulbs and doll parts in place of traditional charms and amulets; and works made from bottle tops, tyres, hub-caps and old machinery by self-taught artists in the United States. Published in conjunction with a travelling exhibition which opened in May 1996 at the Museum of International Folk Art in Santa Fe, the book also contains essays by a group of scholars in the fields of anthropology, art history, folklore and American studies.
