Description

Sitzende Figur mit Kind
Montol, Nigeria
Gesockelt (base included)
Holz. H 41 cm.

Provenienz:
Galerie Walu, Zürich (vor 1995).

In diesem Gebiet sind die Formensprachen der vielen verwandten Ethnien, wie z.B. die der Chamba, Montol, Jukun, Tiv und Mambila nicht klar abzugrenzen. Diese Skulptur zeigt am ehesten Züge des Montol-Stils.

Manche Skulpturen aus dieser Gegend werden als Schutzfigur in den Gehöften der Familien aufgestellt. Andere gehören als Prestigeobjekte gesellschaftlich bedeutenden Personen wie Wahrsagern, Heilern oder Schmieden, bei denen die Figuren in zeremoniellen Handlungen, z.B. als Wächter oder als Medium, verwendet werden.

Montol-Figuren werden auch bei Wahrsageritualen zur Ursachenfindung einer Krankheit und bei Heilungsritualen eingesetzt. Der Patient muss ihnen dann als Gegenleistung für die in Anspruch genommenen Dienste Opfer darbringen.
