Anmerkung : Exhibited:Governors State University, IL, 2003Krannert Art Museum, IL, 2003Belger Art Foundation/University of Missouri-Kansas City, MO, 2004Tall Grass Art Association, IL, 2005Published:Bourgeois and Rodolitz, REMNANTS OF RITUAL: SELECTIONS FROM THE GELBARD COLLECTION OF AFRICAN ART, Ethnos, New York, 2003, p.50, fig.106Beaded masks surmounted with a variety of colored feathers were used in the Bulumbu possession cult of the Tabwa. The interplay of the color of beaded sections is thoughtfully handled in this example. Interestingly, the upper portion of the mask faithfully recreates an nkaka headband, thus making the mask tangibly linked to divination practices.Bonhams 2, Auktionator, New York, US
