What a great series of Van Dercar portraits, never seen anything like it! The weirdest thing is though that while the text actually SAYS the following (which, incidentally, is the message in TIKI MODERN also :) ): "The work of this Floridian artiste shows an influence of the primitive, of African carvings and weird Tahitian gods. All modern art has changed radically because of this rediscovery of (the) primitive approach..." ...NONE of the photos show any of his Tikis, again. My guess is that, as an artist, he considered Tikis as not being enough his OWN creations, but more as commercial endeavors, and did not want them featured in the photos. Or, maybe that's what sold best at the time, and so he just didn't have any around. :)
