FOLK ART FROM GHANA. "African Hair Do Hair salon sign. Wooden panel painted with three choices of women's hairstyles and annotated on the back PS.29.2. Size: 92x62 cm. Small chips. Note "Hairdresser signs are certainly one of the most authentic urban survivals of traditional African art. They describe the "being" of the contemporary in the same way that masks and hairstyles express the ancestral soul. On the bangs of official trends, the panels are a sensitive reflection of socio-cultural change, translating the profound aspirations of populations in the throes of change". Literature: "Ici bon coiffeur", hairdresser signs in Africa. LERAT/SEISER.
