Masquerade is among the most vibrant, dynamic, and long-standing expressive art forms around the world today. In West Africa, masquerades visualize concepts or ideas that reflect the beauty, experiences, and plurality of humanity itself, and their public performances offer opportunities for humans, and sometimes spirits, to connect to one another. There are hundreds of different kinds of masquerade genres, several of which were given consent to be shared with North American audiences in the internationally traveling exhibition project New African Masquerades: Artistic Innovations and Collaborations. Join Amanda M. Maples, director of the New African Masquerades project, to learn about the artists, masquerade genres, and reciprocal relationships necessary to gain consent for this dynamic exhibition project.FREE
