苏珊·穆林·沃格尔所著的《艾尔·纳萨：艺术与生活》是关于这位加纳艺术家的重要资源，他用回收瓶盖创作的挂毯引人注目，并以此闻名于世。这本经过修订和扩充的书讲述了Anatsui从非洲一个默默无闻的大学城走到全球艺术界巅峰的非凡历程。Vogel的展览和书籍影响了非洲艺术史，她分析了Anatsui独特的艺术形式，经常引用她对这位艺术家的采访。她描述了他与非洲传统的密切关系，他早期的泥土和木头作品，十年间获得的成功（展出了光芒四射的金属布），然后是第二个十年的重大进展，这些都在这本书中首次呈现。这本书带我们走进他繁忙的工作室，揭示了他的瓶顶挂件的粗糙现实和微妙的天才，这些作品在世界各地的博物馆和双年展上展出。

This revised and expanded book follows Anatsui on his remarkable journey from an obscure university town in Africa to the summit of the global art world.

She describes his engagement with African traditions, his early work in clay and wood, a triumphant decade exhibiting radiant metal cloths, then a profound development in the second decade, presented here for the first time. The book takes us inside his busy studio, revealing the gritty reality and the subtle genius of his bottle-
