Primitive art

Japanese: 未開美術 - みかいびじゅつ
Primitive art
A term used for the art of so-called uncivilized peoples, it is a translation of the term "primitive art," which can also be translated as "primitive art." Even though it is called uncivilized art, there is no single style, and each ethnic group and society has its own unique development and characteristics. Therefore, the term "tribal art" is used to mean the art of tribal societies, and "so-called" is added before "uncivilized art." Prehistoric Art Tribal Art [Kimura Shigenobu]
