Text is in German. Issued in conjunction with a 2003-2004 exhibition of examples of Podai, an art form rendered by the women of the Loma people of Guinea. It originated as a body art; but the same motifs can decorate house walls and stand as individual pieces. This catalog includes several essays about the people and the art, as well as artist bios. The catalogue lists 125 items, and most are pictured here. Fascinating.
