Über dieses Buch

Kafou: Haiti, Art and Vodou traces the extraordinary history of Haiti's popular art over seven decades, from pioneers like Hector Hyppolite, Philome Obin, Wilson Bigaud and Georges Liautaud, promoted in the 1940s and 50s by Andre Breton and the Surrealists, to exciting contemporary figures like Myrlande Constant, Edouard Duval- Carrie, Frantz Zephirin and the Atis Rezistans group. Its focus is the abiding significance of Vodou (or voodoo ) in the art of Haiti's urban and rural poor. The book documents a major exhibition presented at Nottingham Contemporary in 2012 curated by Alex Farquharson and Leah Gordon."
