505 0  The alluring thing itself -- Aesthetics of work in 
       woodcarving -- Authorship and its consequences -- 
       Artesanías into ethnic art -- The art of indigeneity -- 
       The allure of art and intellectual property 
520    "Unlike many other handicrafts in the Mexican state of 
       Oaxaca, which have long cultural and historical 
       trajectories, Oaxacan woodcarving began in the second half
       of the twentieth century and has always been done for the 
       commercial market. In The Value of Aesthetics, Alanna Cant
       explores how one family's workshop in the village of San 
       Martín Tilcajete has become the most critically and 
       economically successful, surpassing those of neighbors who
       use similar materials and techniques. The dominance of 
       this family is tied to their ability to produce a new 
       aesthetic that appeals to three key 'economies of culture'
       : the tourist market for souvenirs, the national market 
       for traditional Mexican artesanías, and the international 
       market for indigenous art. Offering a new analytical model
       by which anthropologists can approach visual aesthetics 
       and conceptualize the power of artworks as socially active
       objects, The Value of Aesthetics shows how aesthetic 
       practices produce and redefine social and political 
       relationships. By investigating the links between 
       aesthetics and issues of production, authorship, ownership,
       and identity, Cant shows aesthetic change to be a process 
       that ultimately repackages everyday life into commodified 
       objects in Oaxaca."--|cProvided by publisher
