Voices of the Puppet Masters: The Wayang Golek Theater of Indonesia

About the Author Mimi Herbert is an exhibiting graphic artist, sculptor, and printmaker. She lived in Indonesia from 1990-1995. Based on five years of research in Indonesia, this beautifully photographed and illustrated record of Java's master puppeteers and carvers documents the traditions and stories of the centuries-old wayang golek theater. Herbert, an American printmaker and scholar of South Asia, offers an overview of the art form, in which performances blending myth and history last for many hours accompanied by song and gamelan orchestra. Another 10 chapters describe the experiences and philosophy of individual puppet masters and their favorite wayang stories of love, vengeance, and the supernatural. Wide format: 10.25x10.5<">.
