DOGON

MUSEE DU QUAI BRANLY - from 5th April to 24th July 2011

The art of the Dogon of Mali is one of the most recognisable in Africa. This exhibition examines the history of its art and culture from the 10th century up to the present day. For the first time, 330 exceptional works from collections across the world are brought together in France. In addition to masks and statues, other religious pieces and remarkable everyday objects are on display. They reflect artistic influences and retrace the gradual settlement of the Dogon region. The exhibition thus presents a chronological panorama. Unusally, it gives consideration to the technical expertise applied to the patina of the statues. An aesthetic testimony wich goes far beyond the celebrity of Dogon art.
