Maya Iconography

Princeton, New Jersey, Princeton University Press, 1988. Hardbound. Brown and tan cloth with brownish color illustrated dust jacket. XVI, 380 pp. profusely illustrated with drawings and photographs. A collection of 12 essays representing "recent work on Maya iconography from practitioners in a variety of fields: archaeology, anthropology, art history, linguistics, astronomy, photography, and medicine. The time period discussed runs from the last centuries B.C. through the great Maya Classic period, with some discussion of later eras and of regions outside the Maya area. The papers are placed in an order that most clearly brings out the emerging themes: the book shows how certain Maya beliefs grew over time, and for the first time makes connections between Preclassic and Classic iconography." (dj). Good+/Good+ (ex-library with labels and stamps on spine, block, inside front and rear covers and title page verso. Overall light shelfwear to boards, block and dj. Pages are clean and clear otherwise and binding is tight.) .

Bloom Laughlin, Tricia

Seeing America: The Arc of Abstraction

Newark, New Jersey, Newark Museum / Rutgers University, 2019. Hardcover. black & illustrated boards w/ white, blue printing. 161 pgs w/ color illustrations. Includes 83 color plates; 10 essays. "Where do we begin to talk about abstract art? This question depends on one's worldview. From the point of view of the collection included in this book, the arc of abstraction is very broad, sweeping and multivalent. The essays included here take an open view of the story of abstraction, reflecting the variation and diversity of American art included in the holdings of the Newark Museum. The museum gave avant-garde abstraction an early American home, exhibiting the works of painter Max Weber in 1913. Yet abstraction's American roots extend earlier as seen in indigenous objects as well.. (Includes) a broad array of abstract artists including Ad Reinhardt, Phillip K. Smith, III, Philip Guston, Isamu Noguchi, Romare Howard Bearden, Stuart Davis, Louise Nevelson, Arshile Gorky, Mark Rothko, Melvin Edwards, and Joaquín Torres-García. Expert commentary by Ulysses Grant Dietz, Tricia Laughlin Bloom, Gabriel Dawe, Jalena Louise Jampolsky, Marela Zacarias, Tarin Fuller, William L. Coleman, Souleo, Tricia Laughlin Bloom, and Kay WalkingStick provides important insights to help readers understand the nature and significance of the artwork."--Amazon.
