From prehistory onwards, the Indigenous peoples of the Andes have used a visual symbol system - that is, art - to express their sense of the sacred and its immanence in the natural world. This book takes a fresh approach to Andean art that links prehistoric to contemporary forms through an ethnographic understanding of Indigenous Andean culture.
