<em>Large-scale color photographs from 2005 to 2006 reflect the ritual adornment and spirituality of masquerade in Nigeria, Benin and Burkina Faso in West Africa. These portraits of masqueraders build on Galembo's work of the past twenty years photographing the rituals and religious culture in Nigeria, Brazil, Cuba, Jamaica and Haiti, as well as the homegrown custom of Halloween in the United States.</em> <a href="http://butdoesitfloat.com/434490/Embrace-the-alien-within">West African Masquerade</a>. <br /><br />Photography by <a href="http://www.galembo.com/index.htm">Phyllis Galembo.</a> Galembo <a href="http://www.metafilter.com/86587/Dressed-For-Thrills">previously</a>.post:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.92369Sun, 30 May 2010 06:33:51 -0800RinkuphotographyafricacostumesclothesmasksfashionBy: Rinku

Unfortunately, Galembo's website suffers from artist's website-itis, but taking a look at her other projects is worth it.comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.92369-3111966Sun, 30 May 2010 06:35:50 -0800RinkuBy: languagehat

Saw a few old examples of these costumes in the Met a couple of months ago and have been haunted by them since. Fantastic pics.comment:www.metafilter.com,2010:site.92369-3112421Sun, 30 May 2010 11:58:22 -0800merocetBy: sgt.serenity

¡°Why?¡± asked Larry, in his practical way. "Sergeant," admonished the Lieutenant, "you mustn't use such language to your men." "Yes," accorded Shorty; "we'll git some rations from camp by this evenin'. Cap will look out for that. Meanwhile, I'll take out two or three o' the boys on a scout into the country, to see if we can't pick up something to eat." Marvor, however, didn't seem satisfied. "The masters always speak truth," he said. "Is this what you tell me?" MRS. B.: Why are they let, then? My song is short. I am near the dead. So Albert's letter remained unanswered¡ªCaro felt that Reuben was unjust. She had grown very critical of him lately, and a smarting dislike coloured her [Pg 337]judgments. After all, it was he who had driven everybody to whatever it was that had disgraced him. He was to blame for Robert's theft, for Albert's treachery, for Richard's base dependence on the Bardons, for George's death, for Benjamin's disappearance, for Tilly's marriage, for Rose's elopement¡ªit was a heavy load, but Caro put the whole of it on Reuben's shoulders, and added, moreover, the tragedy of her own warped life. He was a tyrant, who sucked his children's blood, and cursed them when they succeeded in breaking free. "Tell my lord," said Calverley, "I will attend him instantly." HoME²Ô¾®¿Õ·¬ºÅѸÀ×Á´½Ó
