A groundbreaking analysis of one of the most significant
collections of African art in the United States The collection of
African art at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts is among the most
comprehensive in the United States, featuring works in all media
from across the continent dating from antiquity to today. This
handsome volume, the product of a groundbreaking collaboration
between the museum's curators and conservators, supported by a
major grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, presents
highlights from the collection-some never before
published-alongside new scientific analysis and imaging. Six
chapters detail both the historiographical and technical concerns
at play in collecting and conserving African art. The result
promises to deepen our understanding of the art in the dynamics of
their original communities and as they appear now in a museum
context. Distributed for the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts
