Last chance! Art of Prehistoric Times

Rock art is about provenance, not primitivism! German ethnologist Leo Frobenius understood that, and his collection of paintings, rendered by hired copyists during his expeditions, act as some of our earliest records of his rock and cave art discoveries. Long after being widely exhibited in the 1920s and 1930s, they still provide a filtered yet fascinating glimpse into the past. Now, nearly a century later, explore the origins of representation, and our early attempts in understanding them.
