A WOOD, NAILS, METAL AND ROPE MALE FIGURE
A WOOD, NAILS, METAL AND ROPE MALE FIGURE
Guinea, Baga

105 cm high

Provenance: Vittorio Bellini (1936-2009) collection.

This sculpture best exemplifies the Baga's desire to consider art as a means of expressing its autonomy and greatness compared to the nearby best equipped communities. With its imposing solemnity, and the refined gesture of hands raised to the chin, it expresses a power similar to the most famous and extraordinary 'nimba' masks.
