<\/a>‚Tundu‘ on the left side<\/p><\/div>\n
After a few random and bulky mask offers, it’s the first piece that can at least dialogue with my red mask made by „Mashini Gitshiola“ (LINK<\/a>\u00a0to „Beautiful Dancer of the Eighties“)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It wears well, is light (260g), smooth on the inside, a little shiny in the center. Her cap also fits me well and her fine whiskers are braided from the ends of the textile. p.127 the male clown<\/em>, ugly<\/em>, first represented by a mere raffia hood without wood<\/p>\n Fig. 42. The first wooden model speaks against me, but the carvers competed with each other!<\/p>\n Fig. 43. Sheer uglyness – Zangela<\/em> caricatured the features of the hyper-male. – My mask also has a bulging forehead. The cheak-bones are at least asymmetrical like the eyelids, the nose is not grotesque but has not been smoothed out with a knife. The nostrils are ‚lamentable‘.<\/p>\n Color plate 4 shows a blackened tundu<\/em> face, which may have been the case with mine before the last painting, as the thin layer of paint rubbed off on the forehead suggests. The red just brushed on thinly for ‚embellishment‘ (market)?<\/p>\n Masquerade 1989, p.208 ff: black mask (25 cm x 18cm; mine 25cm x 16.5cm). Caricature of intercourse to create laughter, especially addressing children\u00a0 p.209; p. 210: simple steps,\u00a0 nickname: „chief of the dance floor“ p.216<\/p>\n Alternatives I checked only superficially: So far my notes from last night. Do you agree so far?\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Detlev<\/p>\n Liebe Zoe, <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Vielleicht bringt die E-Mail ein wenig Abwechslung in Ihren stressigen akademischen Tag.\u00a0 Nach ein paar zuf\u00e4lligen und plumpen Maskenangeboten ist es das erste St\u00fcck, das es mit meiner roten Maske von „Mashini Gitshiola<\/em>“ (LINK<\/a> zu „Sch\u00f6ner T\u00e4nzer der Achtziger Jahre“) aufnehmen kann, die Sie bereits kennen. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
\nThe prominent forehead is all the more striking in the narrow face. It has two vertical grooves on the forehead. <\/a>Eyebrows are missing, no cheek tattoo, but that doesn’t detract from the overall appearance.
\nPlump nose (nostrils not carefully pricked). Sad and almost symmetrical pout with thick lips.
\nPlain red everywhere, already a bit rubbed – I’ll make for this a suggestion below – the black in the ears and on the lips painted over a bit. Lower eyelid shows a white line.<\/p>\n
\n <\/p>\n<\/h6>\n
I checked „Inventing Masks<\/em>“ again, Zoe! I associated Tundu<\/i>, the male ‚ugly‘ clown and see myself confirmed:<\/h4>\n
\nMbangu<\/em>? p.142 pl.49. (in Berlin)
\nPota<\/em>? p.24. The sad mouth.
\nPumbu<\/em> – in line with Pende mask physiognomies?
\n\u2022 mouth pouting, pouting p.113 perpetually angry,
\n\u2022 nose not very prominent, but broad and not straight, not finely feminine p.115,
\n\u2022 flat long cheeks with recognizable cheekbones p.116
\nThe eyebrows, famous in the west, are of less interest to the end of masks. If they do, mask-aesthetic aspects are emphasized, not portrait aspects.\u00a0 p.117<\/p>\n.<\/h6>\n
