GUERE, "WAR" MASK 13, 16", $700, Liberia The Guere, neighbors of the Dan, make masks for similar purposes but usually of a form that is more ugly or scary than Dan masks. They are used for rituals, education and social control and to appear frightening to enemies. On this mask it is not clear how the top row of wood pointed forms were to hang, we show two variations.
