Description
Important documentation of cultural areas Kongo and Mbundu, on regions of Kasai and Kwango. A chapter is devoted to the art of Chokwe and related peoples cultures, Southeast and Southwest. This exhibition brings together for the first time the most representative works of the ethnic groups of Angola who used sculpture as an essential element formulation and material translation of their most significant mythological archetypes, while affirming the primary originality of their culture . It contains a lesson that tells us that one succeeds possible harmonies by the permanent game of the relationship between identity and difference.
