About the book

Encompassing over 40 years of scholarly research on African art, both traditional and modern, by anthropologist Simon Ottenberg. Focusing on the arts of the Afikpo, an Igbo group in southeastern Nigeria, the essays discuss art objects in context of their use in performance and ritual and the symbolism of aesthetic forms and behaviour.
