Oro Efe Gelede Mask, Nigeria
Located in Antwerp, BE
The Gelede spectacle of the Yoruba is a public display by colorful masks which combines art and ritual dance to amuse, educate and inspire worship. Gelede celebrates “Mothers” (awon iya wa), a group that includes female ancestors and deities as well as the elderly women of the community, and the power and spiritual capacity these women have in society. However, this power may also be destructive and take the form of witchcraft; therefore, Gelede serves the function of appeasing this power, as well.

Chiefly Feasts The Enduring Kwakiutl Potlatch by Aldona Jonaitis, 1st Ed
Located in valatie, NY
Chiefly Feasts: The Enduring Kwakiutl Potlatch by Aldona Jonaitis. American Museum of Natural History; University of Washington Press, New York and Seattle, 1991. 1st Ed paperback. 300 pages, 132 large, mostly full-page color photographs and 86 b/w of 19th and 20th century Kwakiutl art in the museum's collections. Published to accompany the exhibition held at the American Museum of Natural History, October 1991 to February 1992; Royal British Columbia Museum, June to November 1992; California Academy of Sciences, San Francisco, January to August, 1993; National Museum of Natural History, October 1993 to March 1994; and Seattle Art Museum, May to September 1994. a traveling exhibition of boldly designed Kwakiutl ceremonial objects which recently opened at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. The potlatch, a festive gathering marked by the lavish distribution of gifts to guests as a sign of the host's status, is central in the tradition of the Kwakiutl of Vancouver Island and the mainland. Ritualistic simulated cannibalism was a feature of some potlatches, which led to the Canadian government's outlawing of the ceremony in 1884. The Kwakiutl continued to potlatch furtively until the ban was rescinded in 1951. Dramatic masks, symbolic wall paintings, headdresses, feast dishes and blankets are among the objects reproduced, together with archival and contemporary photographs attesting to the persistence of the potlatch tradition. Essays by scholars discuss Kwakiutl ritual dance, analyze the social significance of potlatch and reveal how anthropologist Franz Boas...
