ARTS OF THE SOUTH SEAS

The first major post-war exhibition of Oceanic art to be held in the U.S. spawned this Museum of Modern Art catalogue. Oceanic masterpieces were drawn from major museum and private collections, and the result was a blockbuster show and catalogue. Marvelous examples--from Melanesia, Polynesia, and Micronesia--of a range and quality that have since been rarely equalled. The text, of considerable importance, was the first comprehensive survey of Oceanic art to be published in English. Out of print.

Price: $45.00
