Grebo Kru face mask - Liberia - African Art Tribal Art

Item Details

Description

Title: Grebo Kru face mask - Liberia - African Art Tribal Art

Item Category: Mask

Date/Period: Second half 20th century

Origin: Liberia

Materials: Wood

Dimensions: 14,17 Inch

Weight: 1,48 Pounds

Note: Stand not included. A universal or custom base can be ordered separately.

Additional Information: With a powerful visual impact, this mask with projecting features has cylindrical eyes that would refer to clairvoyant faculties. The feathers at the top, which were intended to give the illusion of a spiky headdress, are absent.
The Kru are divided into twenty-four subgroups of which the Grebo are a part, settled in southern Liberia and southwestern CÃ´te d'Ivoire. Their chief is the bodio, who lives reclusively in a hut, the takae . Their masks with tubular outgrowths are said to be of oubi origin, and may symbolize the mythical creatures that inhabit the forests on the banks of the Cavally, which the people address through ritual ceremonies. The interest of cubist painters and modern sculptors in the abstract forms of the Grebo mask could be seen in some of their works, such as Picasso's 1914 metal guitar.
