The actual work was entrusted to the different National Committees which were set up soon afterwards. The Belgian National Committee started its activities in 1877. At first these were restricted to the eastern parts of future Congo, but soon the Committee also started showing interest for the Lower Congo region. Taking advantage of these activities in the western parts, Leopold II founded in 1878 an "international commercial, scientific and humanitarian committee", known as the Comité d'Études du Haut Congo - CEHC which, in 1879, started signing treaties with the local peoples and establishing stations along the Congo river. In 1882 the CÉHC was reorganized as the

from King Leopold's Ghost , by Adam Hochschild "THE TREATIES MUST GRANT US EVERYTHING" On JUNE 10, 1878, a steamer carried Henry Morton Stanley across the English Channel to his first meeting with the King of the Belgians. We do not know what Leopold was doing as he waited for the explorer in his office at the Royal Palace, his patient months of wooing about to bear fruit. But it would not be unreasonable to imagine that this geographer-king once again looked at his maps. Such a look would have confirmed that only in Africa could Leopold hope to achieve his dream of seizing a colony, especially one immensely larger than Belgium. There was no more unclaimed territory in the Americas, and Maximilian and Carlota's disastrous adventure in Mexico was a reminder of what could happen if one tried to take control of an independent country there. Nor were there blank spaces in Asia: the Russian Empire stretched all the way to the Pacific, the French had taken Indochina, the Dutch the East Indies, and most of the rest of southern Asia, from Aden to Singapore, was colored with the British Empire's pink. Only Africa remained. Stanley had followed the Congo River for some fifteen hundred miles. He had obviously not seen all of it, though, because when he first reached it, far upstream, it was already nearly a mile wide. Full exploration would take many years, but after eagerly devouring Stanley's newspaper articles, Leopold had a rough idea of what the explorer had found.

According to the biennial Unesco World Science Report of 1998, Africa is little more than a bystander in most international science issues. Africa, the report says, has for instance failed to make an impact in the development of new materials and products. It watches as breath-taking leaps are made in the fast-moving, far-reaching information technology and communication industry. The Unesco report says a 1992 survey in Africa counted a total of 20,000 scientists and engineers who represent only 0.36 per cent of the world's scientists. Africa, another study established, is responsible for only 0.8 per cent of the total world scientific publications.

Given Williams's association with various factions of cubism and his attempt to emulate its style to capture the hybrid cultures of his native Guyana, the meeting with the great artist was supposed to be a highlight of his career, perhaps a catalyst for new directions in the troubled relation between artists of African descent and the international avant-garde. But as it turned out, the meeting between Williams and Picasso, far from being an ephiphanic encounter, was to be remembered as anticlimactic: There was nothing special about meeting Picasso. It was a meeting like many others, except that meeting Picasso was a big disappointment. It was a disappointment for stupid little things: I didn't like how he looked; I didn't like how he behaved. I never thought I would not like people like that. But the total of the whole thing is that

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).
