15. Akwaaba Travel African Art And Music However, with Susan Vogel leading the way with her baule, african Art; Western Eyes, The subSaharan region of africa has several thousand peoples, http://www.nas.com/africa/africaartmusic.html

ART and MUSIC - Anansi Travel Art: In recent years it has become apparent to students of African Art that in order to understand the inherent complexities present in most African works of art, it is necessary to consider both the perspectives of the conventional Western assumptions and the indigenous perspective. This presents problems because it is difficult for Westerners to fully understand the indigenous perspective given the longstanding Western imperialistic involvement in Africa. In the traditional discipline of art history, the importance of African art has been long relegated to the role of catalyst or raw material for the creative genius of Western artists such as Pablo Picasso. However, with Susan Vogel leading the way with her Baule, African Art; Western Eyes , we are beginning to take steps toward a new look at African art - one which appreciates the methology in Western art history, but also considers the complexities of the visual art traditions of the peoples of Africa. Baule, African Art; Western Eyes Music: Generalizations about African music are difficult due to the cultural diversity of the continent's peoples. The sub-Saharan region of Africa has several thousand peoples, each with different customs and religions (the small country of Ghana has over 60 ethnic groups). Over 700 languages or dialects and geographical conditions contribute to the wide variety of musics in Africa. The traditional music of one tribe may differ substantially from the music of another tribe only a short distance away - music that is vital to one group might make little sense to a neighboring group.

Pictures / photos / images of some MASKS and headdresses in the African tribal, antique, ritual, ethnographic, classical, "primitive" art collection (of variable age, artistic quality, and degree of authenticity) Many African societies see masks as mediators between the living world and the supernatural world of the dead, ancestors and other entities. Masks became and still become the attribute of a dressed up dancer who gave it life and word at the time of ceremonies. In producing a mask, a sculptor's aim is to depict a person's psychological and moral characteristics, rather than provide a portrait. The sculptor begins by cutting a piece of wood and leaving it to dry in the sun; if it cracks, it cannot be used for a mask. African sculptors see wood as a complex living material and believe each piece can add its own feature to their work. Having made certain the wood is suitable, the sculptor begins, using an azde to carve the main features, a chisel to work on details and a rough leaf to sand the piece. He then paints the mask with pigments such as charcoal (to give a black colour), powders made from vegetable matter or trees (for ochre/earth tones) or mineral powders like clay (to give a white colour).
