relié. Condition: D'OccasionBonétat. Cinq Continents, collection "Visions d'Afrique", 2008, grand in/8, reliure souple de l'éditeur, 121 pages. Illustrations en couleurs et en noir. Alors que beaucoup de sociétés congolaises furent autrefois réputées pour leurs sorties de masques impressionnantes et pour leurs maisons de chefs sculptées, c est seulement parmi une poignée de populations, dont les Pende font partie, que ces phénomènes ont été étudiés comme traditions vivantes. Elaboré àpartir de recherches de terrain de nombreux chercheurs depuis les années 1950, l ouvrage offre un aperçu unique de l environnement dynamique de la performance tant en ce qui concerne les mascarades que la sculpture en Afrique centrale. Autant que faire ce peut, le texte privilégie les témoignages des Pende afin de comprendre les différences qui existent entre la pratique rituelle et la forme esthétique. Soucieux du contexte historique, il relate aussi comment ces pratiques artistiques ont répondu (parfois de manière imprévisible) aux pressions coloniales et post-coloniales. Les nombreuses photographies reprennent des oeuvres emblématiques et en proposent d autres, inédites, sélectionnées pour illustrer l éventail complet de l expression pende.

Beautiful copy of this important work. "Masks play an important part in the life of the Pende, as with many Central African peoples. Strother has produced an in-depth scholarly study of Pende masquerade traditions, especially during and following the colonial experience. What makes the book notable is Strother's focus on creativity and the processes of artistic innovation, which the author contends have kept those masking customs vital. While much of the research is based on the contemporary situation, a precolonial and early-colonial art history is also incorporated as an important part of the study."
