| Description: | From earliest times, masks have been at the center of African ceremonial and social life. Their functions are complex and varied: they validate political authority, initiate youths into adulthood, protect communities from witchcraft, assist the spirits of the dead, and teach social values. Today, they are often worn in public performances for general entertainment. The twelve striking masks reproduced here, from the collection of the Brooklyn Museum of Art, represent a number of different peoples from western Africa. |
