Book Description
Focusing on a single Malian textile identified variously as bogolanfini, bogolan, or mudcloth, Victoria L. Rovine traces the dramatic technical and stylistic innovations that have transformed the cloth from its village origins into a symbol of new internationalism. Rovine shows how the biography of this uniquely African textile reveals much about contemporary culture in urban Africa and about the global markets in which African art circulates. Bogolan has become a symbol of national and ethnic identities, an element of contemporary, urban fashion, and a lucrative product in tourist art markets. At the heart of this beautifully illustrated book are the artists, changing notions of tradition, nationalism, and the value of cloth making and marketing on a worldwide scale.

Book Description
4e de couv.: The Silence of the Women, Bamana Mud Clothes leads the reader into the compelling world of Bamana women, examined through the study of a traditional textile, mud cloth or bógólanfini. The book treats mud clothes as a complex art form, illuminating the hidden cultural testimony written into its pattern. It reveals women's silent visual commentary on the events that dominate their lives: excision, arranged marriage, childbirth and death. The silence of the Women is a decisive contribution to our understanding of female knowledge and the ways in which this knowledge is preserved and transmitted to the next generation. Combining art history with anthropology, Sarah Brett-Smith reconstructs with exquisite subtlety and patience the existence of a savoir-faire that has had to deny its own existence. Written as a pendant to an earlier book, the Making of Banama Sculpture, it leads us into an artistic and emotional understanding of the shadowy world and the pregnant silences of Banama women.
