{"product_id":"9783777447582","title":"Ayeye! : Ruth Baumgarte meets Iwalewahaus - Renee Gadsden","description":"This new, richly illustrated book centres on how Ruth Baumgarte depicted humanity - from her early works created during the Second World War to the vibrantly colourful Africa pictures of her later years. Over four decades, Baumgarte (1923-2013) developed a distinct visual language born of existential urgency, ultimately culminating in her Africa cycle. She took more than forty trips to Africa, where, with a keen eye for people and relationships, she engaged with post-colonial realities, social inequalities, and cultural identity. Across her oeuvre, Baumgarte's personal experience of the 20th century is distilled into a visual reflection that touches on threat, renewal, and humanity's obligations to nature and society. Presented as a dialogue with contemporary African artists, this volume explores Baumgarte's biography, broader humanity, and the global perspective.","brand":"Renee Gadsden","offers":[{"title":"112 pages, 80 \/ 08\/10\/2026 \/ History of art \/ art \u0026 design styles","offer_id":57448420671863,"sku":"9783777447582","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/gulpfictionbooks.com\/products\/9783777447582","provider":"Gulp Fiction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
