Wall-Hanging Sculpture Decorative Mask Art Brut Style

About the Item

Art Brut Wall-Hanging African Mask Circa 1980 This decorative mask is a unique piece of Art Brut, entirely handmade by artist Rudi Van Rienen. The piece is named "Maske in Blau" (i.e. "Blue Mask"). Inspired by African Art, the mask was created using pieces of reclaimed wood, metal and nails. The piece is adorned in a vibrant blue color that immediately catches the eye. Its surface is covered with a beautiful patina, bearing witness to its history and authentic character. The mask's features both reflect the influence of African Art and Art Brut in its style. Designed to be hung on the wall, this mask is a visually stunning piece of art, with a mysterious aura. The label of the artist is placed on the back. Circa 1980.
