Nick Cave – Meet Me at the Center of the Earth

Recent book acquisition: Meet Me at the Center of the Earth which is a catalog of artist Nick Cave‘s exhibit at the Yerba Buena in SF. The book “features sculptures that Cave calls Soundsuits, to evoke the sense of movement, rattles and rustles inherent in the design of the pieces-which are composed of manufactured and handmade fabrics, such as beads, sequins, bottle caps, old toys, twigs and hair, and seem poised to explode into ritual dance. Exploring issues of ceremony, ritual, identity and myth, they embrace various traditions, as well as cultural and historical references, from African fetish objects to Japanese Butoh dance.”

Very happy to have found this book (in the bargain bin no less)!
