Book Description
X91;Mawonero’ is a publication that sheds a bright light for the first time on modern and contemporary African art in Zimbabwe. From the Shona language, the word ‘Mawonero’ means ‘way of seeing’. This unique survey is devoted not only to present-day artistic practice, but also to the roots of contemporary Zimbabwean art. The focus is on cultural centres such as Harare and Bulawayo or institutions such as the Gallery Delta, as well as on mission schools in their role as incubators. ‘Mawonero’ ranges across the entire art scene from 1957 to 2011, and is the first publication to make Zimbabwean art history accessible.

Book Description
Zimbabwean sculpture continues to be one of Africa's most original and internationally acclaimed artistic movements. This retrospective exhibit catalog reflects on the origins, developments, and contemporary challenges of the movement. Containing 90 fullcolor photographs of examples of stone sculpture from the 1950s until the present day, it showcases the work of artists, past and present, from Zimbabwe and other countries of the southern African region, such as Zambia, Angola, and Mozambique. Introductory essays give an overview of stone sculpture in Zimbabwe, reflect on the role of the National Gallery and Tengenenge, and document the rise of the "independent sculptor" and the "extended family" in Zimbabwean stone sculpture. The final essay is on sculpture, street-craft, and reproduction. This dual-language book is a joint publication with The Embassy of France in Harare, and the texts and accompanying notes are translated into French.

Book Description
Artists have long been stimulated and motivated by the work of those who came before them—sometimes, centuries before them. Interviews with 120 international contemporary artists discussing works from The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection that spark their imagination shed new light on art-making, museums, and the creative process. Images of works from The Met collection appear alongside images of the contemporary artists' work, allowing readers to discover a rich web of visual connections that spans cultures and millennia.
