📖 The Scoop
A Sense of Wonder explores sub-Saharan African and Ethiopian art though stunning works dating from the 15th to the early 20th century. Drawing on African concepts, the inward-looking, contemplative quality of the sublime is shown through exquisitely refined emblems of leadership, divination materials, and masterworks of devotional worship made from wood, ivory, parchment, and bronze. In contrast, the externally-directed aesthetic of the fantastic is evoked through polychrome spirit masks and altars constructed from daring, unexpected juxtapositions of animal and human forms.
Genre: Art / Collections, Catalogs, Exhibitions / General (fancy, right?)
