Mask - Kumu Komo - DR Congo

This sale presents a set of works from the studio of a Belgian painter, gathered over time as a result of his discoveries, encounters, and affinities. The artists often maintained a privileged relationship with the arts of the world: sensitive to the strength of forms, the simplicity of volumes, and the expressiveness of materials, they were among the first to view these objects differently from mere curiosities. Their eye, naturally attentive to lines and balance, led them to collect these works and, at times, to draw inspiration from them. This collection thus testifies to an intimate dialogue between artistic creation, the collector’s gaze, and a fascination with forms from elsewhere.
