Art of Northwest New Guinea: From Geelvink Bay, Humboldt Bay, and Lake Sentani

Published by Rizzoli, New York 1992

 

Some 200 outstanding objects of ritual and daily use are illustrated to demonstrate the aesthetic sensibilities of the nonliterate peoples of this region. Following an earlier study of art from Papua New Guinea’s Sepik River (Edition Greub, 1985), this book brings full circle Greub’s treatment of New Guinea.
