Hardback. Condition: New. The Baule people of the Ivory Coast are renowned for their refined sculptural work of masks and figures. This book is the first to focus exclusively on an antithetic aspect of Baule culture-rough zoomorphic sculptures representing monkeys. These awe-inspiring bowl-bearing figures evoke invisible powers and serve their communities through the mediation of diviners. Investigating the creation, forms, and usage of the sculptures, the authors shed light on the cultural and ritual contexts in which they operated. Beautifully illustrated with over 55 full-page color images of works in public and private collections, this important publication also includes many unpublished field photographs.Distributed for Mercatorfonds.…

Hardcover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. Hardcover with dust jacket, 191 pages : illustrations (some color), color map ; 31 cm. As new, still in publishers shrink wrap. "Straying from the traditional art canon of the delicate Baule masks and figures, Baule monkeys explores the darker side of this art form, in all its aspects. This makes it the first book to deal exclusively with the eponymous sculptures. These awe-inspiring bowl-bearing figures were physical manifestations of invisible powers, both malign and benign, and served their communities through the mediation of diviners. Using a group of remarkable figures from the Africarium collection as illustration, the book focuses on the creation, usage and form of these bowl bearers and sheds light on the cultural and ritual context in which they operated. Through extensive research, the book combines new and fascinating discoveries with all previous relations on the subject. This research is accompanied by many splendid images. Not only does the book include an original map and never before published field photos, it also contains 15 objects from the Africarium collection and 40 monkey figures from other public and private collections represented in full-page illustrations, and in smaller formats. This gives the reader a chance to see the works in great detail and from different angles.".…

Hardcover with dusjacket 192 pages | 30,5 x 23 cm | 130 illustrations | ENGLISH . FINE!! ISBN 9789462301344. The first book exclusively on the subject, Baule Monkeys explores many aspects of these fear-inducing sculptures far from the traditional art canon of the delicate Baule masks and figures. The awe-inspiring bowl bearers manifested invisible powers, both malign and benign, and served their communities through the mediation of diviners. Springing from a remarkable group of figures in the Africarium Collection, the book explores the creation, usage and morphology of the bowlbearers, and sheds light on the cultural and ritual context in which they operated. Through extensive research, this book combines new and fascinating discoveries with all earlier research on the subject, an original map, and field-photos never published before. It focuses on fifteen objects from the Africarium Collection and a further forty monkey figures from public and private collections all presented in beautifully detailed full page spreads. 0 g. …

Premier ouvrage exclusivement consacré à ce type de sculptures. Ces figures impressionnantes, généralement porteuses d'une coupe, incarnaient des forces invisibles, tant maléfiques que bénéfiques, auxquelles les communautés Baule faisaient appel par l'intermédiaire des devins. À travers un groupe de figures remarquables provenant de la collection de l'Africarium Collection, le livre étudie la création, l'utilisation et la forme de ces porteurs de coupes, tout en éclairant leur contexte culturel et rituel.…

Jean Bourgeois .S.J. (Maubeuge, formerly in the Southern Netherlands, 1572 - 1653), led the jesuit college at Valenciennes and subsequently at Saint-Omer. This very handsomely printed, illustrated and bound book is devoted to the worship in the Roman Catholic church of the Holy Mary. This worship, with Antwerp as a centre, became a weapon in the counter-reformative action against Protestantism. The illustrations, with a caption in Latin underneath served the didactical purposes of the jesuits in their drive to bring the catholic religion to the young and uneducated.
