$40.00

Presented by Rothmans of Pall Mall Canada Ltd., 1974. Stiff wraps, quarto, 64 pp., illustrated throughout in black and white and color. Some edge-wear to wraps. Very good overall.

Exhibition catalogue of a large donation of Aboriginal art that toured Canada between 1974 and 1976. Great color reproductions of the intricacies and vibrancy of various media. Many of the pieces are visual representations of myth, such as the movement of animals or the crafting of objects. A stunning representation of visual language that traditional Western art really hasn’t caught up to yet.
