This book enhances our appreciation for interviews as a research tool and cautions us to use this tool with greater awareness of its power to shape our subjects., "This book enhances our appreciation for interviews as a research tool and cautions us to use this tool with greater awareness of its power to shape our subjects."--Victoria Rovine, University of Florida "African Art, Interviews, Narratives . . . is a highly reflective collection of essays about the work of constructing art history out of interviews. Designed to unsettle and open up the relationship between interviews and scholarship, it speaks to the work of anthropology by aiming to better understand the nature of the interview process itself, how we produce and convey meanings from interviews and related documents. While it will be of particular interest to anthropologists working as museum curators, it will be equally useful to any professional whose craft largely depends upon interviews."-- Leonardo Reviews "In these essays, one hears the narratives and learns the perspectives of a diverse group of people that greatly illuminate both meaning and intent."-- African Studies Review "African Art, Interviews, Narratives provides scholars the chance to reexamine the role of the interviewer, interlocutor, and art historian when making printed text from recorded interviews."-- Oral History Review, "African Art, Interviews, Narratives... is a highly reflective collection of essays about the work of constructing art history out of interviews.
