Περιγραφή από τον πωλητή
Spider Mask
Kran, Bangolo Region, Côte d’Ivoire
Wood, pigment; dark patina from use, incl stand.
The solidly crafted mask derives its effect less from a closed face than from a dramatic superimposition of three-dimensional forms. Numerous curved, finger- or leg-like protrusions emerge from the deeply curved mask body, intertwining above the facial area to form a dense network. Two larger, horn-like, ascending elements frame the upper section. The dark brown to black surface shows heavy wear, encrustations, and reddish pigment residue. Lateral holes served to attach the mask costume. In its deliberately chaotic morphology, the human physiognomy seems to recede behind an aggressively animated, animalistic appearance.
The work is attributed to the Kran people of the Bangolo region in western Côte d’Ivoire, who are associated with the wider cultural milieu of the Wè people. Masks here were not merely representations, but embodiments of independent spiritual forces, whose efficacy only fully manifested through dancers, costumes, music, and movement. So-called Gla masks are documented for Kran communities; these could be associated with social control, legal proceedings, harvest ceremonies, and burials. Masks explicitly designated as "spider masks" have also been linked to this context.
The multitude of curved protrusions makes the traditional designation as a spider mask understandable. The work derives its particular power from this transgression of the boundaries between face and animal body, order and menacing transformation.
