Photos by Pierre-Alain Ferrazzini. Published in French as : Sculpture ("Chefs D'Oeuvre Du Musee Barbier-Mueller") English version Published by The Vendome Press, 1995.Bad news first : No Field Photos, No Index, No Bibliography, Objects Often Published.Good News : The Price ! What a huge and amazing book available for under twenty bucks. (Spring 2014). It must have had a pretty substantial print-run to be so affordable, and since I'm not a book-snob, the cheaper the better.....I don't believe that the more you pay, the better the book. This publication gives me more pleasure than many I've forked out $200+ for. Also : These works are often-published for a reason...and the reason is that they are (mostly) true tribal art masterpieces, not least because the Barbier-Mueller Collection of tribal art is one of the finest in the world . And consider this : The book is almost certainly better value than a round-trip ticket to Geneva.See also : Arts of the South Seas: Island Southeast Asia, Melanesia, Polynesia, Micronesia.
