SUMMARY:New African Masquerades: Artistic Innovations and Collaborations
DESCRIPTION:New African Masquerades: Artistic Innovations and Collaborations highlights the stories of four contemporary masquerade artists\, their motivations\, artistic choices\, and the patronage and economic networks with which they engage. Through the presentation of works of Chief Ekpenyong Bassey Nsa (Nigeria)\, David Sanou (Burkina Faso)\, Sheku “Goldenfinger” Fofanah (Sierra Leone)\, and Hervé Youmbi (Cameroon)\, the exhibition offers fresh research models for contemporary masquerade\, bringing to the fore issues relating to ownership and research ethics.\n\nA collaboration between an international team of scholars and artists\, this is the first major exhibition on contemporary West African masquerade artists to focus on individual creators rather than the typical presentation of masquerades as products of entire cultures\, which undermines the nuanced and layered stories that individual artists and masquerades tell.\nImage: New African Masquerades: Artistic Innovations and Collaborations is organized by the New Orleans Museum of Art\, in partnership with Musée des Civilisations noires in Dakar\, Senegal\, and received generous support from the National Endowment for the Humanities
