The Element of Terror in Primitive Art is a book written by Ferree Barr in 1889. The book explores the use of terror in primitive art and how it is used to convey the beliefs and values of the culture. Barr examines various forms of art, including sculpture, painting, and masks, from different cultures around the world, such as Africa, Asia, and the Americas. The author argues that the use of terror in primitive art is not simply for shock value, but rather it is a way of communicating the power and mystery of the supernatural world. The book also discusses the role of the artist in primitive societies and how they are seen as mediators between the human and spiritual realms. Overall, The Element of Terror in Primitive Art is a fascinating exploration of the cultural significance of terror in art and its role in shaping our understanding of the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
