●内容简介——

这本图文并茂的书籍初次同时探讨了古希腊、莫希和玛雅文化的彩陶。

古希腊、莫希和玛雅文化的彩陶上分别绘有萨蒂尔和狮身人面像、暴力的豆科植物和跳舞的玉米神形象。《希腊、莫切和玛雅陶器上的故事讲述》是第1本研究这三个不同文明的精美装饰陶器的书。尽管这些文化被空间和时间分隔开来，但它们都使用陶器来讲述故事、解释世界并阐释核心神话。这些彩陶中的每一个都是一个图画世界。但为什么这些社区选择陶器作为视觉交流的主要方式呢？这些器皿是如何制作和使用的？在这本书中，专家们介绍了这些文明，探讨了这些基本问题并研究了彩绘图像。读者将更好地了解每个古代社会，深入了解它们的文化共性和差异，并获得关于图像制作和讲故事的新视角，这些做法至今仍充满活力。

本书的出版是为了配合 2024 年 4 月 10 日至 7 月 29 日在盖蒂别墅的保罗盖蒂博物馆和 2024 年 9 月 14 日至 12 月 15 日在埃默里大学的迈克尔·C·卡洛斯博物馆举办的展览。

This abundantly illustrated volume is the first to explore the painted pottery of the ancient Greek, Moche, and Maya cultures side by side.

Satyrs and sphinxes, violent legumes, and a dancing maize deity figure in the stories painted on the pottery produced by the ancient Greek, Moche, and Maya cultures, respectively. Picture Worlds is the first book to examine the elaborately decorated terracotta vessels of these three distinct civilizations. Although the cultures were separated by space and time, they all employed pottery as a way to tell stories, explain the world, and illustrate core myths and beliefs. Each of these painted pots is a picture world. But why did these communities reach for pottery as a primary method of visual communication? How were the vessels produced and used? In this book, experts offer introductions to the civilizations, exploring these foundational questions and examining the painted imagery. Readers will be rewarded with a better understanding of each of these ancient societies, fascinating insights into their cultural commonalities and differences, and fresh perspectives on image making and storytelling, practices that remain vibrant to this day.

This volume is published to accompany an exhibition on view at the J. Paul Getty Museum at the Getty Villa from April 10 to July 29, 2024, and at the Michael C. Carlos Museum at Emory University from September 14 to December 15, 2024.
