Masque gere we Gewo
Superbe masque,  ethnie située à l’ouest de la Côte d’Ivoire. Ce masque de guerrier, souligné des clous de tapissiers, offre des traits fantastiques qui semblent jaillir du visage, caractéristiques qui semblent provoquer l’effroi. 
C’est principalement dans l’ouest de la Côte d’Ivoire que les Beté emploient des masques dont le style a été influencé par la société Gla Gle les populations whole et Guéré ensemble dénommé We .
D’origine guerrière mais participe également à la résolution des conflits, ce masque sacré est accompagné d’amulettes qui protègent son porteur de sa puissance contre la sorcellerie. C’est afin de renforcer son pouvoir par l’exercice de la justice coutumière que ces masques sont mis à la disposition du chef.
