I love this artwork from the Dogons. The animal masks are my favorite. They are mysterious and beautifully designed. There's some magical, ethereal quality about them, especially when they are used in Dogon ceremonies. I'd like to find more videos of their dancing and performances, I've only tracked down these two so far. I saw some great ones back in college that I wish I could find.
