*Large set of eight clubs, Papua New Guinea... - Lot 82 - De Baecque et Associés
*Large set of eight clubs, Papua New Guinea and New Caledonia Wood L. 65 cm - 72 cm - 73,5 cm - 86 cm - 94 cm - 98,5 cm - 103 cm and 114,5 cm Provenance : Private collection, Switzerland Inscribed in a profoundly contemporary style of writing by their purity and simplicity, this rich set of eight clubs attests to the beauty, the great diversity, and the multitude of graphic and aesthetic possibilities that the creative genius of the Papuan and Canaic peoples could employ. The boldness of the forms springs from the wood: straight, curved, symmetrical, asymmetrical, transcending their utilitarian or symbolic function. Objects of war, of parade, of glory and prestige, whether they are smooth and uncluttered, or decorated with hypnotic and sacred motifs, these objects reflect the universality, the mastery of the genius of the Pacific artists. This lot is temporarily imported and is subject to a 5.5% buyer's fee in addition to the sale price.
