Reviews...Night of the Tiki is a book that transports you to the Polynesia within. You are kidnapped by gardenia-scented zephyrs, your ears filled with the rustling of palms and the savage thunder of distant drums, your body caressed by warm tropical waters. --Chris Pfouts, Hula Dancers and Tiki Gods.
SynopsisNight of the Tiki: The Art of Shag Schmaltz and Selected Primitive Oceanic Carvings represents a genuine high-water mark in the current Polynesian revival, bring in the best of present and past tiki Americana and art together with selected pieces of indigenous Oceania., This book explores the work of Shag, America's hippest neo-tiki artist, Leroy Schmaltz, the grand-daddy of 1950s tiki Americana, and the authentic Oceanic art that influenced them both. This book serves as the catalogue for an exhibition of the same name which illuminates traditional tiki culture through the display of primitive anthropomorphic carvings and shows, through the work of Shag and Leroy Schmaltz, how these artists have taken tiki to new levels.
