Maske, "mbuya"
Pende, DR Kongo
H 26 cm.

Provenienz:
Nachlass R. Rinderknecht, 1938 in Situ erworben.
Mbuya genannte maennliche Gesichtsmaske aus dem reichen Repertoire der Pende-Tradition.
Urspruenglich hatten solche Masken rituelle Funktionen und waren Mittler zwischen den Kraeften des Dies- und des Jenseits, z.B. waehrend der Knaben-Initiation als Erscheinungsform der Ahnengeister. Heute treten sie eher bei allgemeinen Festen auf um die Anwesenden mit kleinen Szenen zu unterhalten und damit den sozialen Zusammenhalt der Gesellschaft zu foerdern.
