Oct 5, 2023
741 Alexander Rd Unit3 Princeton NJ 08540, United States
Dr. Philip Gould a distinguished Professor of Chinese Art at Columbia University and Sarah Lawrence College, was in his personal life a passionate collector of tribal art and artifacts from around the world. This collection from Dr. Gould has a dazzling variety of cotton and silk textiles, garments, and accessories featuring traditional techniques and craftsmanship from tribal regions in Bhutan, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, India, Cambodia, the Philippines, Myanmar, Laos, China, and Japan. Dr. Gould's interest in Guatemalan textiles shows the hyper-regionality of back-strap loom weaving techniques and symbolic designs. Within this context the vibrancy of the Mayan culture comes through. The collection features ornate and brightly colored Huipile (tunics), Faja (sashes/belts), Corte (skirts), Tzute (wraps), and Tocoyal/Cintas (headbands).
