Dan, Ivory Coast Ceremonial mask Ebony, headdress made of linen and iron Total height 127 cm African masks from the Dan people of Côte d'Ivoire are renowned within African art and play a central role in the spiritual and social life of the communities of the eponymous ethnic group. These traditional art objects embody spirits or invisible forces, known as “gle” or “ge.” Their use is closely linked to initiation rituals, funeral ceremonies, and conflict resolution. They are recognizable by their slightly convex, egg-shaped form with a protruding mouth and nose, their rounded forehead, and their small or closed mouth. We thank Bernard Dulon for his expert opinion.
