Weaving Life. The Textile Collection of the Museo Nacional de Etnografía y Folklore, La Paz, Bolivia, following the productive chain

When we started preparing this catalogue, little work has been done in Bolivia on the museological aspects of textiles from the Andean and Amazonian regions of the country, and still less in a contextualised sense, taking into account the social life of its regions. In the present volume, in coordination with the Museo Nacional de Etnografía y Folklore (Musef), in La Paz, we decided to remedy this situation by proposing a new focus towards the woven objects located in the museum deposits, centred on making these textiles within the productive chain of weaving, taking into account the social life of the weaving communities of practice in the region, and also the social life of textiles as both objects and subjects.
