Description

Standtrommel, "bulup"
Kuba, DR Kongo
Holz, Leder. H 67 cm.

Provenienz:
Galerie Walu, Zürich.

Das heutige Königreich Kuba ist eine von der Herrscherschicht Bushong dominierte Konföderation von rund zwanzig Ethnien mit gemeinsamer Bantu-Abstammung.

Der Name Kuba kommt aus der Bantu-Sprache und bedeutet dort "Wurfmesser". Die ca. 250'000 Menschen zählende Gruppe des Kuba-Stammeskomplexes umfasst u. a. die Bushoong, Kete, Tetela, Ngeende, Lele, Binji und Shoowa.

Alle diese Ethnien hegen eine spezielle Vorliebe für geometrische Formen und versehen deshalb viele Gegenstände, sowohl aus dem täglichen Gebrauch wie auch aus den Ritualen, gerne über und über mit feinsten Mustern.

So ist auch diese Standtrommel, welche bei verschiedenen zeremoniellen Festlichkeiten Verwendung fand, mit umlaufendem, geometrischem Schnitzdekor und einem im Relief angeschnitzten Maskengesicht versehen.
