This beautiful volume showcases over seventy remarkable examples of Indonesian textile art, a recent gift to the Art Institute from the E.M.Bakwin Collection. The featured works, including batiks, ikats, and other textiles, represent the finest examples of Indonesia's textile production and evoke the region's rich ethnic and cultural complexity. Indonesian textile expert Brigitte Khan Majlis explores these objects not only as works of art - stunning products of both individual creativity and a long aesthetic tradition - but also as important artifacts that illuminate the history, beliefs, and lives of the people who make and treasure them. Generously illustrated, "The Art of Indonesian Textiles" also features fascinating contextual photographs and engaging entries on each of the featured objects.
