Artefactos Objetos Artesanales De Colombia

Bringing together more than 500 years of creativity with images of multiple artifacts made from different materials-including wood, clay, metals, fibers, stone, leather, and seeds-this book brings Colombia's immensely rich history of crafts to life. Because of its privileged geographic location, natural wealth, and variety of climates and ethnicities in which millenary migratory currents meet more recent European and African waves, Colombia's crafts are known for their unique look and style. These symbolic examples of nationality, representative of the continental region to which they belong, are a testimony to the rich artisan culture that exists in Colombia. Incluyendo mas de 500 anos de creatividad con imagenes de multiples artefactos de diferentes materiales como la madera, el barro, los metales, las fibras, la piedra, el cuero y las semillas, este libro cuenta la rica historia del mundo artesanal colombiano. Gracias a su privilegiada posicion geografica, su riqueza natural, su variedad climatica y su diversidad etnica, en la que conviven y se funden corrientes migratorias milenarias con mestizajes europeos y africanos mas recientes, la artesania colombiana es conocida por su singularidad y estilo. Estos ejemplos simbolicos de la nacionalidad, representativos de la region continental de la que forman parte, dan testimonio de la solida cultura artesanal colombiana.Villegas, Liliana is the author of 'Artefactos Objetos Artesanales De Colombia', published 2007 under ISBN 9789589138694 and ISBN 9589138691.
