THE DIVINE POEM AS REVEALED

RAJBANSHI MASKS

RAMAYANA

Il Museo d’Arte Orientale di Venezia, in collaborazione con ICI Venice – Istituto Culturale Internazionale e l’Association pour le Rayonnement des Cultures Himalayennes, presenta la mostra Rāmāyaṇa. The divine poem as revealed by the Rajbanshi masks, Museo d’Arte Orientale di Venezia, 8 aprile – 10 settembre 2017. La mostra, sostenuta da ICI Venice, e patrocinata dall’UNESCO, dall’Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia e da ICOO, Istituto di Cultura per l’Oriente e l’Occidente, offre un suggestivo percorso tra Nepal, India e Indonesia, seguendo la diffusione del Rāmāyana, testo sacro dell’induismo. Tradizionalmente attribuito al saggio Vālmīki (fine II – inizio I sec. a.C.), il nucleo originario del grande poema venne composto in realtà tra il VI e il III secolo a.C. e trovò la sua definizione nei primi secoli della nostra era.

RED MONKEY MASK

gujarat_mask_kukunas_tribe_ethnoflorence_collection.jpg

(Mask no 260)

Frontal View

(Mask no 260 side view)

(Short Youtube video version)

The film tracks the journey of KUKANAS, a tribal community engaged, from generations, in the art of making stunningly beautiful masks. Shot at Sutarpada, a place located between western states borders of Gujarat and Maharashtra.

(Long Youtube Video Version)

The number of people associated with the traditional art is thinning by the day and the inevitable end is staring the art right in the eyes.. The sparks of the art captured on camera in the form of various art fully prepared masks expressing range of expressions, leaves one spellbound by its sheer strength of beauty and scale..
For Kukanas, these masks are their way of offering their reverence to their gods and heroes.The in-fighting in the tribal community took its toll on the art and pushing it on the brink of oblivion. The journey of this inimitable art moves one with its striking beauty and scale leaving one feeling moved at the inevitable fate of oblivion it awaits.
