Descrizione : wood, feathers, glass, base Near the end of Belgium?s colonial rule, administrators like Robert Verly, were instigated to find the last surviving sculptors and set up ateliers to preserve and pass on their craftsmanship as well as traditional art forms. For many carvers in the Congo region had stopped carving traditional masks and figures and instead created works that were suitable for the external market. Verly?s first social workshop for indigenous art was founded in 1955 in Tshikapa. In the following years Verly would open about 20 more of them in the Kasaï region. This figure can be seen in a 1956 photograph of Verly in the Kaluesha workshop in the Tshikapa region. Verly wanted to protect the Congolese sculptors from Western influences, but also strove for the further development of indigenous art styles. The extent to which the Belgian administrative officials then again influenced the artistic products of these workshops would have to be investigated more closely.
