Description
Continuing their program of exhibitions of unusual collections, St-Cyprien Collections exhibit through this exhibition and catalog over fifty sculptures unpublished Yoruba. All these objects are from a private collection that has never been shown to the public and is here for the first time. The desire to focus this number of Yoruba works reflect a scientific bias. It is again through the subjective view of a private collector, with his choices, his tastes, his story you look here Yoruba art. Remains that such a number of Yoruba objects together in a single exposure is extremely rare, and no collection to our knowledge has no equivalent in the matter. Order by object types: Gelede masks and Egungun, Oshe Shango, Divination, iron and diverse.
