Luba mask - DRC ex Zaire - African Art Tribal Art

Item Details

Description

Title: Luba mask - DRC ex Zaire - African Art Tribal Art

Date/Period: Second half XX°

Origin: DRC ex-Zaïre

Dimension: 11,81 Inch

Materials: wood

Weight: 1,32 Pounds

Item type: masks

Provenance: The collection comes from the tribal art collection of Guy Mercier, a consultant for the Solvay group, who undertook it at the beginning of the 20th century. Although he travelled extensively in West and Central Africa as part of his work, collecting works in situ, the majority of his collection came from the "cabinets of curiosity" that abounded in European capitals during the 1920s. It also comes from prestigious galleries (Paris, Brussels, London, New York, etc.). A small, semi-spherical African mask with similarities to Songye masks. It did not, however, serve the same function. This rather rare category of African masks is known as "bifwebe". They appeared at funerals and investitures.
They were performed during the ritual ceremonies of the kazanzi society, charged with combating witchcraft. "Bifwebe" (Sing.: kifwebe), according to C. Faïk-Nzuji, "to hunt death". Worn with a voluminous raffia collar that concealed the dancer, this mask was generally danced in the company of a zoomorphic mask. For the Luba, white is synonymous with a relationship with the spiritual world, the circular shape of the object evoking the moon.
