Sculpture - Wood - Senufo - Ivory Coast
A female Senufo Rhythm Pounder, called Déblé, Ivory Coast, village Diametènè, with an extremely elongated neck: a remarkable touch patina documents a longlasting ritual use, Provenance: the heritage of Mr. Kaba Cabinet, who passed away about ten years ago. In an interview with his wife we got the written informations about the Western Art dealers Mr. Cabinet – similar as Amadou Bouaflé one of the most important African Art dealers in Ivory Coast, had many contacts to wellknown European Tribalartdealers. The names are written a little bit “outside of reality”,which is typical with the oral – not written – tradition in Africa, but it is not difficult to see which famous French, Italian and German Art dealers were among M. Cabinet’s customers. “Mr Cabinet worked with Elia first and it was Elia who brought him to Germany. . . he had contact with Malachine, Main Duré, Patrick Gerrare, Alain Duffu and Antoine Ferrari. ” Informant his wife, Bouaké July 2020.
