Wood in Art

“Wood in Art” unveils the captivating world of wood carvings as vital forms of cultural storytelling and artistic expression across diverse societies. These carvings are not merely decorative; they're tangible representations of a community's worldview, values, and history, illustrating how wood has transformed from a functional material into a powerful medium for preserving traditions and commemorating events.

The book explores how various cultures have ingeniously adapted woodworking techniques to reflect their unique cultural identities. The book journeys across continents and through time, examining wood carvings through the lenses of art history, anthropology, and material culture.

It begins by introducing wood's fundamental role in human history and art, progresses to detailed analyses of carving techniques and traditions, and concludes by exploring the contemporary relevance of wood carving.

By drawing on archaeological findings, historical texts, and ethnographic studies, “Wood in Art” provides a comprehensive exploration of these artistic achievements.
