2016.12.3 - 2017.1.7 




在華麗的髮型與圖騰下,隱藏著無限的細膩...

鮑勒族是象牙海岸重要的部落,在他們特有風格及細膩感的創作下,成了非洲部落藝術中最雅緻作品的代名詞之一。由一整塊木頭雕刻而成,他們的雕塑描繪著重在人類或動物的特徵下,一貫呈現光滑的表面、均衡的比例、清晰的線條,和圓潤帶有輕微的不對稱...等獨特美感,顯露了內斂但略有張力的表情,也強調精細編織的髮型,自信的形體美達到高度藝術性的指標。

面具主要分三種:第一種為水牛造型(1),起初是僅配戴於戰士,現在大多是保護村莊的象徵。第二種是圓形面具(2),在慶典時慶祝新作物並由顯貴的人佩戴,第三種是人臉面具(3),也有兩個臉在面具上象徵雙胞胎(4),人們認為雙胞胎是好兆頭。

雕像通常手依靠腹部,雙腿輕微彎曲的站立著,值得注意的是那精心線條的髮型,雖然雕像外觀相似當卻有不同的涵義,目的上通常有分兩種類型:第一種是叢林精神的代表較為罕見,是豐富收割及追獵的榮譽象徵,綴滿繡銅色。另一種是較常見的站立或坐著形式,為個人守護的象徵,表面大多是光滑。

根據曾任紐約大都會藝術博物館館長 -蘇珊•沃格爾 (Susan Mullin Vogel) : 象牙海岸的鮑勒族的高超的雕塑作品早已在歐洲和美國公認非洲最顯著藝術傳統之一。許多現代藝術家,例如:阿梅代奧•莫迪利亞尼(Amedeo Modigliani.1884-1920)的作品也反映受鮑勒形式的直接影響。

鮑勒族作品隱藏著無數的精心細節,一張漂亮五官的鮑勒族面孔沿著頸部,整個背部和肚臍周圍,那謙遜的外表下流露出最有力的美感。
