Fang door    (N°1152 )

Old Fang door. Using a simple adze and a knife to finish, the wood is carved and polished by the abrasive sheets of ficus. The piece is worked without a measuring device: everything is done to look. The artist created a technical feat. Now scattered across southern Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon, the Fang, from the north west in the 18th century, whose numbers are difficult to census, are a people of hunters and farmers. This dispersal has never started the homogeneity of the Fang, who found a sort of social cohesion of societies around Ngil and So, and formerly of the cult of Byeri.crackcrackcrackcrackcrackcrackcrackcrackcrackcrackcrackcrackcrackcrack
