It covers the art of primitive peoples from Australia and New Zealand to the islands of the Pacific and Easter Island, discussing the art of various tribes in relation to their history and customs. It is particularly fascinating because the variety of peoples and of art forms is so great. For example, only in Australia does the modern investigator have an opportunity to see survivors of the Stone Age still at work. In the islands there is still a chance to preserve the arts of cultures that are fast disappearing as they come into contact withthe modern world. In order to understand the arts of these peoples, we must understand their religions, such as animism, totemism, polytheism; and we must understand the myths, magic and taboos by which they regulate their lives. THE ART OF THE SOUTH SEA ISLANDS explains these religions and superstitions and discusses important differences between the languages and cultures of the Papuans, Tasmanians, Melanesians, Micronesians, Polynesians, Maoris, etc. It tells of the early migrations of the different races from Asia and describes the terrains in which they made their homes as well as the materials they worked with~ stone, wood, bark, fibers and the like. This book is divided into three sections. In the first, Dr. Alfred Buhler presents the Pacific area from New Guinea to Easter Island; then Terry Barrow treats the Maori of New Zealand, and Charles P. Mountford concludes the book with a chapter on the art of the primitive peoples of Australia.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. An impressive first American edition in the Art of the World series, this richly illustrated volume offers a sweeping survey of Oceanic art including Australia, New Zealand, Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia. Bühler, Barrow, and Mountford, each leading scholars in their respective regions, integrate anthropology, art history, and ethnographic documentation to illuminate ceremonial masks, sculptural forms, bark paintings, engraved objects, textiles, tools, and ritual implements. Over 300 illustrations (many in color) accompany the text, providing one of the most visually comprehensive mid-century introductions to Pacific artistic traditions. The authors contextualize objects within their cultural and religious frameworks, explaining ancestor veneration, cosmology, initiation rites, and the ceremonial functions of carved and painted forms. Particularly striking are the reproductions of New Ireland malangan carvings, Australian Aboriginal bark paintings from Arnhem Land, intricately engraved Micronesian ornaments, and Maori woodcarving and meeting-house iconography. The book remains a foundational reference for collectors, anthropologists, museum scholars, and students of indigenous Pacific art. A clean, sharp, and well-preserved copy in red cloth with bright gilt; only a touch of wear to the lower rear board edge prevents a Fine grade. Interior is immaculate - crisp, unmarked pages, strong binding, and all plates vivid and intact. Endpapers show mild offsetting from jacket panels, typical of the series. Dust jacket is bright and complete, retaining original $5.95 price. Light edgewear, a few small chips, and subtle rubbing to rear panel; spine panel shows older reinforcement at lower edge, neatly applied. Overall, a strong example compared with typical surviving jackets for this series. Edition/Printing Notes: Stated First Published in 1962 with no additional printings indicated.
