Voodoo stake sculpture decorated with a... - Lot 88 - Ader
Voodoo stake sculpture decorated with a character sculpted in foot, tied with a cord ending with a cowrie shell attaching to the bust a skull probably of a small rodent. This statuette with an oblong skull is very close stylistically and perhaps by the same sculptor as the one exhibited at the Villa Médici in 1986 for the exhibition in homage to André Malraux-Scultura Africana and reproduced on page 301 of the catalog. Fon, Benin Wood, cord, cowrie shell, animal bone, sacrificial material, beautiful patina of use H. 27 cm Provenance : Anne and Jacques Kerchache Collection
