Beauty and the Beasts: Kifwebe an danimal masks of the Songye, Luba and Related Peoples

Marc Leo Felix knows African art, and within that, the art of Central Africa and the Congo, not only through many years of study and hands-on examination of thousands of examples, but from intensive field work among Congolese peoples. His long and intensive work in the field has given him an intimate and profound understanding of the religious, socio-political and artisitc structures and canons of the Songye, Luba, their sub-groups and their neighbors in the Congo.
