Mask Chikunza Chokwé - Lot 93
Mask Chikunza Chokwé ANGOLA Beaten bark on wooden frame, resin, red cloth, pigments, fibres H. 123 cm Collected in 1960. This large characteristic mask directs the MUKANDA initiation cycle. Ephemeral because it is renewed in each cycle, this mask is, therefore, rare in Western collections. See in particular Marie Louise Bastin (Angolan Sculpture, 1994, page 158).
