Art in Other Places Artists at Work in America's Community and Social Institutions
Westport, Connecticut, Praeger, 1992. 1st printing. Hardcover. 8vo, pp. xix, 291. Bound in burgundy cloth with gilt lettering to spine & front brd. Foreword by Page Smith. Very good+. No dust jacket. "In this book, the accounts of 'art in other places' are, in fact, stories of the relationship of artists to communities. These communities are, in their various forms, communities of troubled and sometimes dispairing individuals. The artists bring light and hope and the joy of creation to those communities, and they are themselves remade in the process." "In drawing the attention of the artists away from their own needs and statements to the needs of the members of their communities, 'art in other places' deepens the artists' comprehension of the meaning of what they practice. It turns out they need these arduous communities as much as the communities need them. .

Women of the Praia: Work and Lives in a Portuguese Coastal Community
Princeton, Princeton University Press, 1992. orig.wrappers. 23x15cm, xvii,189 pp, PAPERBACK.. Minor rubbing. VG.
¶ In this richly detailed, sensitive ethnographic work, Sally Cole takes as her starting point the firsthand accounts of five differently situated Portuguese women, who describe their lives in a rural fishing community on the north coast of Portugal. Skillfully combining these life stories with cultural and economic analysis, Cole radically departs from the picture of women as sexual beings that prevails in the anthropological literature on Europe and the Mediterranean. Her very different strategy--a focus on women as workers--reflects the Portuguese women's own definition of themselves and allows them the strong, resonant voice that is the goal of both the new ethnography and feminist scholarship. From this new perspective, Cole proposes an important critique of the dominant paradigm of southern European gender relations as being embedded in the code of honor and shame. Covering the Salazar years, as well as the period since the 1974 Revolution, Cole shows that fisherwomen of the past enjoyed greater autonomy in work and social relations than do their daughters and granddaughters, who live in a context of increasing commoditization and industrialization. Central to this account is an examination of the changing structure and role of the household as economic production moved to the factory" - Publisher's description.
