The Menil Collection opened their reinstalled African Galleries on April 11. Approximately 100 objects highlighting the human form are on view in the new space, many of which have never before been displayed at the Menil Collection. Examples include a Dogon mother and child figure, a terracotta from the Inland Delta of Mali, and a Kongo power figure. The reinstallation expresses the celebration of existence in African culture and explores the diversity and contrast found in African art, with objects ranging from miniature to life-size, abstract to naturalistic, male to female, and familiar to foreign.
