In blending the concerns of Art History and Anthropology, the authors focus on the art patronage systems that stimulate production, consumption, commodification and cultural meaning, and emphasize the overriding importance of cloth to aesthetic and cultural expression in African societies. Through this approach they reveal complex processes that involve a series of actors, including textile artists, commissioning-patrons and consumer-patrons, all of whom shape cloth and dress traditions. These individuals not only influence production, but are a key to understanding the cultural meaning of cloth and dress and, by extension, the body in Africa.VAN00195169Cloth, dress and art patronage in Africa1852954ABBIGLIAMENTOAfricaVANC036309ARMecenatismoAfricaVANC036409AR391.009622PeraniJudithVANV172277826796WolffNorma HVANV172278826797ITSOL20240906RICAhttps://www.bloomsburycollections.com/book/cloth-dress-and-art-patronage-in-africa/E-book – Accesso al full-text attraverso riconoscimento IP di Ateneo, proxy e/o Shibboleth.BIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI ARCHITETTURA E DISEGNO INDUSTRIALEIT-CE0107VAN01NVAN00195168BIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI ARCHITETTURA E DISEGNO INDUSTRIALE01CONS E-BOOK SBAARCH 01EBA195168 20210803 E-book – Accesso al full-text attraverso riconoscimento IP di Ateneo, proxy e/o Shibboleth.Cloth, dress and art patronage in Africa1852954UNICAMPANIA
