DAN MASK
original: Dan Mask (Ivory Coast and Liberia)

The Dan live between Liberia and Ivory Coast. Before the unifying capacity of the secret societies at the beginning of the 20th century, the chief was recognized by the clans for his charisma and his capacities but he was required to return accounts to old. Today, wether the life is structured around the company of the "leopard", the Dan preserved the same ideal based on an extreme individualism of which the goal is to reach notoriety and the social success. The masks are benevolent. Their refinement is the expression of the female ideal of beauty. They are used at the time of festivals and the initiation of young people.
