1 African Art, CA This week I decided to look at African art. While I wouldn t say it s my favorite art to look at, this chapter (15) intrigued me. My mom lived in Africa during her childhood so we have lots of little African sculptures and artifacts all around our house. I was curious to compare real ancient African art to the little trinkets we have. In Africa, art helps define and create culture. It is integrated within African life and thought, and was not created solely for display until the final decades of the 20th century. (410) Africa is very large leading to a lot of variety within. However, there are similarities across the continent. For instance 1) 2) 3) A big emphasis was put on honoring ancestors Nature deities were worshiped Rulers obtained a sacred status On each slide I chose one main piece of art to go more in depth with. I also included one or two other works of art that share something in common with the main piece.
2 King Ife, Nigeria, 11th to 12th century, Zinc brass Heads and the Sacred Nature of Kings in African Art This is a sculpture of a king. Setting it apart from other African art, the modeling shows idealized naturalism. It is idealized because there are no blemishes or signs of age. It is naturalism because the face is quite realistic, almost to the level of portraiture. Also significant is that this piece of art, along with a lot of other African art, features an abnormally large head. This was because Yoruba (a group of people in Benin and Nigeria) believed the head was the locus of wisdom, destiny, and the essence of being. (415) Lastly, this statue is also significant in the fact that it was made to serve in rituals based on sacred kingship. Rulers sacred nature was often emphasized in Africa. Altar to the Hand and Arm (left) and Master of the Symbolic Execution (right) also features proportions that emphasize the size of the head. Altar to the Hand and Arm also shows the sacred nature rulers possessed. The king is larger than the surrounding figures, animals are being sacrificed to him, and this altar s purpose was to make sacrifices to the king s power and accomplishment.
3 Running woman Body-Decoration in African Art rock painting, from Tassili, Algeria, BCE This piece was found in Apollo 11 cave and is one of the earliest known works of art. It has a significant amount of detail for the time and was superimposed over other figures, a common occurrence in African art. The woman wears ceremonial attire and also has dotted marks all up her arms, legs, and torso. This sort of body painting was very common for rituals. The Head from Lydenburg is another example of body-decoration in African art. People would purposefully create scars on their flesh to create patterns. This head displays these scarification marks.
4 Walls and tower, Great Enclosure, Great Zimbabwe Zimbabwe, 14th century Architecture and Ancestors in African Art The Great Zimbabwe (left and top) is an example of African architecture. It had large towers and walls (up to 30ft) and served as a royal residence. Commoners would live in the surrounding area. It also may have been a granary. The Bird with crocodile image on top of stone monolith (right) was found at an ancestral shrine of a king s wife at Great Zimbabwe. Ancestors were very important in African culture. The bird possibly symbolizes the wife s ancestors, who were believed to communicate between sky and earth. Another possibility is that the bird, along with crocodile, symbolizes previous rulers who were messengers between the living and the dead. The crocodile s eyes and the chevron patterns also represent different ancestors. The Beta Medhane Alem church from Ethiopia is another example of African architecture.
5 Ivory belt mask of a Queen Mother Benin, Nigeria, mid-16th century. Ivory and iron. European Influence and Deities in African Art This mask was worn around the waist of a Benin king. It shows Idia, the mother of Oba Esigie (by whom the mask was commissioned). Its crown is made up of Portuguese heads and mudfish. Portuguese heads are also around the neck. The mudfish symbolize the god of the sea, wealth, and creativity, Olokun. Worship of nature deities was common in African culture. The Portuguese heads reference the relationship the Benin had with Portugal. They often traded with each other. The Master of the Symbolic Execution also references Portugal. In the 15th-16th centuries, Portuguese explorers would commision Sapi (West-coast) artists. This is one of those pieces made for Portugal. It was also influenced by European design in the fact that it has a spherical container resting on a pedestal, geometric patterns, and shirts and hats that were common in Europe.
