The Jean Pigozzi African Art Collection

Disguise: Masks and Global African Art, Brooklyn Museum, New York, USA

from 29/04/2016 to 18/09/2016


Disguise: Masks and Global African Art connects the work of twenty-five contemporary artists with historical African masquerade, using play and provocation to invite viewers to think critically about their world and their place within it. By putting on a mask and becoming someone else, artists reveal hidden realities about society, including those of power, class, and gender, to suggest possibilities for the future.
