The spectacular beauty of African sculpture is readily apparent. Much less understood are the contexts in which they were created. Who are they artists, what is the history of the tribes, where do they live and, most importantly, what do these objects mean to them? This book illuminates such topics in several descriptive essays and with masterpieces from over 90 tribes. It constitutes a comprehensive presentation of African tribal art, particularly wood sculpture and masks. The essays analyze the aesthetics of African tribal art, take a look at its anthropological significance, and then explore the six major geographical regions: the Sudanese savanna, the northern and western Guinea coast, Guinea's east coast, Atlantic equatorial Africa, the Zaire basin, and East Africa.
