After opening in spring 2025 at the New Orleans Museum of Art, the North American exhibition will travel to the Frist Art Museum in Nashville, Tennessee; the Mint Museum in Charlotte; the National Museum of African Art, Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.; and the Museum of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, Florida. A concurrent exhibition will open at the Museum of Black Civilizations in Dakar, traveling from there to the Sierra Leone National Museum in Freetown and the National Commission for Museums and Monuments in Calabar, Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A specialist in West African masquerade practices from the late 19th century to the present, Homann\u2019s scholarship has focused on Burkina Faso for nearly two decades. She first traveled there in 2006 and in the years since has developed deep and longstanding relationships with artists, dancers, blacksmiths, <a>griots<\/a> (musicians), patrons, chiefs, and boosters of masquerade in the region. In 2008, she met the renowned masquerade sculptor Andr\u00e9 Sanou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDuring one of our conversations, Andr\u00e9 asked if I might be able to find him venues to show his work in the US,\u201d Homann has written for the exhibition publication. \u201cI suggested that my scholarship (then forthcoming) would publicize his artistry abroad, potentially putting him in a better position to garner commissions. He agreed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having taught his son David Sanou the art of carving, Andr\u00e9 Sanou retired in 2009, and David took over his father\u2019s studio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI was revising an article about Andr\u00e9\u2019s work when the elder sculptor passed away,\u201d Homann wrote. \u201cI was able to attend his wake and the grand funeral in which masks emerged in his honor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/05\/LH-and-DS-in-Conversation-May-24-2022-ALT.png\" alt=\"Lisa Homann with David Sanou in Burkina Faso studioi\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1800\/1282;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Masquerade artist David Sanou with Lisa Homann in the artist\u2019s studio, Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso, 2022.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Between 2019 and 2022, Homann worked with David Sanou, his family, a blacksmith, another maker, several chiefs, colleagues, and friends to commission four full-body daytime masquerade ensembles for three U.S.-based museums. In 2022, David Sanou told Homann, \u201cI want people to know that dad himself wanted to do this during his lifetime but well\u2026God has changed things. [Dad] couldn&#8217;t do it, but it was his will.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Homann is returning to Burkina Faso in March to commission two more ensembles: one for the Museum of Black Civilizations in Dakar, Senegal and another for the Mint Museum in Charlotte, NC. All of those ensembles will be part of the <em>New Masks Now<\/em> exhibition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy goal was to ethically commission and acquire the works in a manner that respected and benefitted their creators, masquerade authorities, patrons, and researcher, while minimizing negative effects,\u201d Homann wrote. \u201cIt was by virtue of my long-term relationships with masquerade insiders, transparent consultation with those colleagues, and demonstrated respect for the official chain of command, that we were able to realize the commissions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among the goals of the <em>New Masks Now<\/em> exhibition, Homann said, are to demonstrate that masquerade is a vibrant and innovative contemporary performance art and to amplify the voices of artists and diaspora communities by highlighting the careers and perspectives of the four featured masquerade artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/06\/David-Sanou-composite.png\" alt=\"two photos of David Sanou carving in his workshop\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1200px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1200\/525;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>David Sanou at work in his studio, Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso, 2022. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Homann has published numerous articles and editorials in the journals <em>Res<\/em>, <em>African Arts<\/em>, and <em>Africa<\/em> and is completing her first book.
