A decade that rewrote art history. This exhibition traces how African and Oceanian objects went from ethnographic curiosities to celebrated artworks, driven by bold dealers, poets, and avant-garde pioneers in 1910s Paris. Archives, photographs, and iconic sculptures, including the Fang reliquary guardian and Baga mba mask, bring the story to life.
