Korn, Jørn, and Jesper Kirknæs. 1974. Modern Makonde art. London; New York: Hamlyn. Modern Makonde art, especially their sculpture, has evolved to become a vibrant and contemporary reflection of their traditional artistry. The Makonde artists, particularly from Tanzania and Mozambique, have gained international acclaim for their work. Their modern sculptures often blend traditional themes with contemporary forms and materials, creating pieces that are both innovative and deeply rooted in their cultural heritage. Makonde sculptures are known for their intricate detailing and abstract forms, often depicting human figures, mythical creatures, and complex social narratives. The use of ebony wood, with its rich, dark hue, adds to the dramatic effect of these works. Some modern Makonde artists have also started to experiment with other materials, such as metal and stone, bringing a fresh dimension to their art. The objects in this book come from Jørn Korn personal collection. Unlike other publications on the topic, this book emphasize the work of five individual artists rather than treating the works as anonymous and “created by the culture”. The works are represented in color and black and white images (which are sometimes a bit too dark) – many full-page with biographies of each artist and a discussion of the art, its cultural background, and technique. An interesting short chapter at the end discusses the wood used in Makonde sculpture.

In the last year or so, Makonde art has even been seen in the galleries of London and New York. The author discovered modern Makonde sculpture while working on a technical aid mission in East Africa, and between the years 1966 and 1970 assembled his own private collection. He has selected for this book the sculpture of five outstanding artists whose work he believes worthy of serious consideration. The brief profiles of each artist’s life and his relationship with his work were compiled by the author in lengthy talks with the men themselves, and the author records in the explanatory captions the descriptions given by the artists of their work. The author’s intention was not to write an academic treatise on Makonde art, but rather to pay a pictorial tribute to five Makonde sculptors who have resisted facile commercial pressures and have retained their artistic integrity. He asks that their work be judged not as an ethnographic phenomenon, but as one aspect of contemporary art. Check out my other listings of African, Oceanic, Native American art and art history, and other regions of world art and cultures for additional rare finds. I currently list two other titles on Makonde art.
