In the bend of the river Zambezi in southern Africa, strange spectacles of death take place after the boys’ circumcision ceremony: the Makishi. The initiates put on ancestral masks to become actors in an ideal society which will guide the living to knowledge.

(from “Makishi, danses de mort pour les vivants” by Françoise Gründ and Marie-Noëll Robert, Éditions Noesis, Paris, 2000)

The “Makishi” are a series of six paintings made exclusively for Green Safaris which were on display at Ila Safari Lodge in the Kafue National Park, Zambia. In June 2023, however, the whole central building of the lodge burnt down, including those six paintings. But five more of these paintings are still available from the beautiful new 37d Gallery in Lusaka. In total fifteen Makishi paintings were made. See “Galerie”.
