‎Mémoires religieuses Baga‎

‎Genève, Musée Barbier-Mueller, 2016, 21,5 x 27,5, 126 pages cousues sous couverture rempliée illustrée. Iconographie noir & blanc & couleurs. Catalogue publié à l'occasion de l'exposition présentée à Marseille en 2013. "Mémoires religieuses baga propose une réflexion sur la transmission culturelle et ses mécanismes en Afrique. Jadis, les Baga de Guinée-Conakry ont été de talentueux sculpteurs de masques et de puissants ritualistes connus pour leurs sociétés d'initiation masculines. Dimba, un buste féminin colossal en bois, et le masque serpentiforme Bansonyi témoignent, entre autres, de leur histoire religieuse et font aujourd'hui partie des chefs-d'oeuvre de l'art africain. Avec la venue de l'islam et du catholicisme, ces sociétés de Guinée maritime ont été transformées en profondeur, mais elles restent aussi héritières de leur passé. En l'absence d'initiations et de forêts sacrées, de nombreux éléments de l'édifice rituel d'antan ont persisté jusqu'à ce jour. Au fil des pages de cet ouvrage, le lecteur est amené à explorer les usages passés des objets baga, mais aussi ce qui reste aujourd'hui de l'héritage de ces populations littorales."‎

‎ Baga, Visions of Africa‎

‎, 5 Continents, 2019 softcover, 148 pages, 72 ills. 16,5 x 24 cm., test in English, *new. ISBN 9788874398201.‎


‎The Baga, along with the Nalu and the Landuma, are a small rice-growing community living along the coast of Guinea, in West Africa. They became famous following the discovery of their extraordinary sculptures by explorers, colonial administrators, ethnologists, collectors, and art dealers towards the end of the nineteenth century. Nowadays, the art of the Baga is admired in the public and private collections of northern European countries. Their works consist mainly of different types of wooden masks and statues of various sizes, as well as wonderful percussion instruments, chiefs' seats, and other skillfully carved utilitarian objects. All these sacred objects were once created and used as important features in their ritual behavior based on the manifestation of their divinities, ancestor worship, rites of passage, secret brotherhoods, and the performance of important social ceremonies like weddings, funerals, and harvesting. But more recently they have also included entirely new sculpted works created by talented, highly skilled craftsmen who were influenced by colonization and newly introduced religions, while at the same time finding inspiration in traditional myths and legends. Fascinating examples of this eclecticism are the figures of colonists depicted standing, on horseback, or riding birds, the many different kinds of female busts representing Mami Wata, the sea goddess, winged figures, bestiaries associated with tales and legends, and the personifications of the heroic founders of their villages.‎
