Figur, "deble" / Senufo / Côte d'Ivoire / African Art

Item Details

Description

Figur, "deble"
Senufo, Côte d’Ivoire
Gesockelt / with custom base
Holz. H 111 cm.

Provenienz:
- französische Kolonialsammlung, Abidjan.
- Galerie Walu, Zürich (vor 1995).
- Schweizer Privatsammlung, Obwalden.

Deble oder Doogele genannte, weibliche Rhythmusstatue aus dem poro-Geheimbund. „Rhythmus“ deshalb, weil sie, an den Armen gehalten, mit dem Sockel auf die Erde gestampft wurde. Durch die dumpfen Schläge wurden die im Erdinneren wohnenden Seelen Verstorbener angerufen.

Nach Till Förster standen solche Figuren für die Tradition der Gesellschaft, symbolisierten den von den Ahnen gefundenen rechten Weg und gewährleisteten in diesem Sinne Segen und Fortschritt.
