Talk:Chiwara

Still needs a photo.

I made a crappy drawing, but as one of the most emblematic figures of African art, I can't believe no one has a photo. If you find a public domain imge, please upload it to the commons (and lik it here)!T L Miles 16:40, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

I found a photo via flickr and added it, so I've taken the phot request off this talk page.T L Miles 19:27, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Expanded this: needs more of...

... The sylistic variations of the actual figures (by area, culture, time). This is highlighted in

• California State University: How do we distinguish between aesthetic analysis and investigating the cultural context of works of art?.
• princetonol.com: Chi Wara Headdress of the Bamana.

ALSO, I know this figure was one of the more influencial in modernist, semi-abstract western art, but I can't find citations. I know I've seen Picasso with one of these. Art historian needed! T L Miles 20:27, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure this is stellar, but I'm pretty sure the article is no longer a stub. I zeroed out the class=stub in the AfricaProject tag above.T L Miles 19:56, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
