| Summary: | This Special Issue brings the Indigenous American lacquer community together, building bridges and overcoming the existing geographical and language obstacles. With dual-language (English and Spanish) articles focusing on <i>barniz de Pasto</i> and <i>mopa mopa</i>, Mexican lacquer (or <i>maque</i>) and <i>cumatê</i>, this collection includes contributions covering a number of disciplines. This volume is a ‘go-to’ research resource encompassing scientific and historical reviews, case studies, articles focusing on sociological and anthropological perspectives, and on cross-cultural contact and exchanges between Asia, Europe and the ‘New World’. The approach used to compile this Special Issue goes beyond European and North American perspectives, and includes voices that represent the genesis and context of Indigenous American lacquer objects more faithfully and objectively. |
