The Art of the Loom: Weaving, Spinning and Dyeing Across the WorldFargerike stoffer med avanserte teknikker produseres fortsatt ved hjelp av det enkleste utstyr mange steder i verden. Denne boken fokuserer på åtte ulike steder hvor de framstiller tekstiler på denne måten; Navaho veving i Nord Amerika, beduin tekstiler fra Midtøsten, veving fra Vest-Afrika, tekstiler fra Indonesia, Japan, Nepal, Guatemala, Peru. Boken beskriver fremstillingsteknikkene og tekstilene. Eksempler på tekstiler fra det enkelte området er illustrert med flere fargebilder både av vevene, tekstilene, mønstrene og arbeiderene. I tillegg til å være antropologisk interessant, kan denne boken brukes som inspirasjon for vevere. Boken ble første gang publisert i 1989, denne paperback utgaven er revidert. |
