Author: Bertiaux, Michael

Vudu Cartography The first entirely new book by Michael Bertiaux for more than 20 years.

Vudu Cartography explores the mysteries of Vudu through chants, oracles, seances and a symbolic system of images – all connected by a descriptive narrative which leads us, like a dusty highway, through the shimmering landscape.

Drawn from his experiences in Haiti, Bertiaux's own evocative voudon 'art brut' images create a map for those regions of 'invisible power', giving the reader ingress to the 'mysteries and hiddenesses of an exotic theology, with its spiritist twists and turns and esoteric spaces.'

The second title in the 'Bibliotheque de Verseau' series has been placed for printing. "Vudu Cartography" is a work, unpublished and unseen, from the school of Michael Bertiaux, and includes more than 130 new vudu images by the artist, all printed in full color on archival paper.

It treats of the secrets and magick of the Vudu mysteries and is illustrated with full color plates. Limited to 708 copies only, bound in a premium cloth with dust jacket. Landscape octavo. 192 pages.
