Igbo fetish - Nigeria - African Art Tribal Art

Item Details

Description

Title: Igbo fetish - Nigeria - African Art Tribal Art

Date/Period: Second half XX°

Origin: Nigeria

Dimension: 15,75 Inch

Materials: wood, raffia

Weight: 2,43 Pounds

Item type: Statues, ancestors, reliquaries

Provenance: The Igbo live in the forest in southeast Nigeria. They have managed to combine a strong sense of individuality with an equally strong sense of belonging to the group. Their political system is complex and little known. The village is the largest social unit, the smallest being the extended family. Each village has a high degree of autonomy and is under the authority of the oldest lineage chief. The Igbo religion includes on the one hand the god Chuku , supreme creator, considered omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent, and on the other hand the spirit of the earth Ala . Igbo masks embody a range of ancestral spirits in ritual ceremonies associated with the agricultural calendar.

Additional Information: Stand not included. A universal or custom base can be ordered separately.
