Himalayan Tribal Masks

Price: sold

"A unique cross fertilization of religious ideals exists among the many ethnographic groups that inhabit the remote mountains of Nepal. They are subsistence farmers and animal herders who traditionally invoked shamanic cults to protect them from disease and natural calamity.

The tribal mask making tradition may represent ancestral, animistic and shamanic vestiges of now long lost or suppressed local religions. Not bound by an orthodox religious canon they created original interpretations out of simple forms.

Today profound changes have taken place as local myths have been transformed by the dominant Hindu and Buddhist cultures that surround them. Ancient narrative folk legends slowly change over time as social, political and economic conditions impact local culture."

The Rubin Museum of Art in New York who just opened will be the largest museum in the country devoted to the art of Tibet, Nepal, and surrounding regions.

Himalayan Tribal Masks
