  • A BRIEF HISTORY of MASKS Mask Is the Essence of Drama
    BLM3 Teacher/Student Resource A BRIEF HISTORY OF MASKS Mask is the essence of drama. The act of putting on a false face and becoming someone (or something) else for a moment has not been changed by time. The history of masks predates the history of drama and dance. Face decoration is at least as old as music and has been a part of storytelling since language development began on earth. Masks are used by people to communicate with others. Primal humans don animal masks or ghost masks and express their world. The 16th-century nobleman revels in the commedia dell’arte with its masked characters mocking his lifestyle. A clown strolls down the street in a parade able to delight young and old, who accept him as a jovial friend because of his clown face. Mask triggers what Coleridge called “willing suspension of disbelief” in theatre better than any other device. Chinese audiences recognize immediately the characters of lords and warriors whose elaborate, painted-on masks convey a long history of cultural tradition. NON-REALISTIC THEATRE There are a number of cultural and psychological factors converging in the experience of the mask. When someone covers up their own identity with a mask they become an abstract animation. If the mask conveys a symbolic meaning that we can read, we may be instantly aware of complex layers of meaning, or we may respond emotionally to the signals in the mask even beyond our conscious reasoning. The mask makes the actor into someone else, and we immediately accept them in their new role.

  • Face and Mask
    © Copyright, Princeton University Press. No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. For us the most entertaining surface in the world Is that of the human face. Georg Christoph Lichtenberg, Sudelbücher, F. 88 introDUction: Defining tHe sUbject 1 A history of the face? It is an audacious undertaking to tackle a subject that defies all categories and leads to the quintessential image with which all humans live. For what, actually, is “the face”? While it is the face that each of us has, it is also just one face among many. But it does not truly become a face until it interacts with other faces, seeing or being seen by them. This is evident in the expression “face to face,” which designates the immediate, perhaps inescapable, interaction of a reciprocal glance in a moment of truth between two human beings. But a face comes to life in the most literal sense only through gaze and voice, and so it is with the play of human facial expressions. To exaggerate a facial expression is to “make a face” in order to convey a feeling or address someone without using words. To put it differ- ently, it is to portray oneself using one’s own face while observing conventions that help us understand each other. Language provides many ready examples of figures of speech that derive from facial animation. The metaphors we all automatically use about facial expressions are particularly revealing. “To save face” or “to lose face” are typical of these.

  • African Masks Introduction Slide 1: Map of Africa
    Art Appreciation, Spring 2013 African Masks Introduction Many of the ancient cultures have survived through a tradition of storytelling, or “oral history.” People keep their cultures and religions alive by passing down myths and folk tales from one generation to the next, over thousands of years. People bring these myths and folk tales to life through masquerades – masked performances of special customs and stories that bring together dance, music, singing and art. At the center of these rituals is the African mask. The African mask is not only a work of sculpture, but because of its function, it is also considered a performance art form. Despite development of big cities and access to TV and movies, the African mask continues to be a cultural tradition among many people. Today we are going to be discussing African masks from Western Africa, mainly the Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso. Slide 1: Map of Africa What do you know about Africa? (weather, animals, etc.) When you think about Africa, what comes to mind? Has anybody here ever been to Africa? What did you see? Africa is the world's second-largest and second-most-populous continent. Approximately 1 billion people live in Africa. There are approximately 2000 languages spoken in Africa and there are 55 countries. It is a very diverse continent in a variety of ways. Today many people in Africa live in modern houses and work in offices, while others live a more traditional way of life. In traditional cultures, many people work on small farms or produce goods for trade in the village marketplace.

  • African Art Collection
    AFRICAN ART COLLECTION Mano people, Liberia, Do River Masquerade (deangle) 1939 Wood, cotton, fiber, metal, cowrie shells, feathers, vegetable dyes 78 × 29¼ × 28¾ in. (198.1 × 74.3 × 73 cm) Gift of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Manis S-77-22 Deangle, a masquerade performed by Mano men, is the name of a cheerful, nurturing, and beautiful female spirit. Among the Mano and other related groups of Liberia, masks are the embodiments of spirit beings who enter the world of humans. They appear in various guises and perform in initiations and other key ceremonies. Deangle appears in ceremonies for male initiations and also begs for food from the families of the boys isolated in the initiation camps. Although the mask embodies a female spirit, the costume is worn by a man whose movements imitate those of women and who speaks in a highpitched voice. This complete Mano deangle masquerade costume includes a characteristic tall conical cap made of local men’s weave cotton cloth with alternating indigo-dyed and natural-colored stripes and studded with cowries. The masquerader’s body covering is composed of a tunic of the same cloth and a full raffia skirt. The masquerader’s identity was thoroughly concealed from head to toe with these garments and a wooden face mask. The mask, with finely modeled features, slit eyes, and filed teeth made of tin, images the concept of ideal feminine beauty. The mask was collected in 1939 by botanist W. E. Manis, who worked for the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company in Liberia. Manis commissioned the mask, then acquired it after its first performance, so it lacks the heavy patina of many masks found in Western collections.
