West of the current nation of Benin, in the forests and coastal areas of Ghana and in south-eastern Cote d'Ivoire, live a group of peoples known as the Akan. Between the eleventh and twelfth centuries, migrating Twi or Akan speakers, moving south from the savannas, mixed with established forest societies.

Musée d'ethnographie de Genève

Le Musée d'ethnographie de la Ville de Genève, inauguré le 25 septembre 1901, fut créé à l'initiative du professeur Eugène Pittard (1867-1962), également fondateur de la chaire d'anthropologie de l'Université de Genève. Il fut installé dans la villa de Mon Repos léguée à la Ville de Genève par Philippe Plantamour. Pittard put réunir dans la nouvelle institution des collections publiques et privées: principalement les collections ethnographiques du Musée archéologique et du Musée Ariana, la collection du Musée de la Société des Missions évangéliques et des armes du Musée historique genevois, collections qu’il compléta au fil des années par des dons et de nouvelles acquisitions.

Le Musée des Arts Africains, Océaniens et Amérindiens

Marseille est la seule ville de France, avec Paris, où l'on peut visiter un musée consacré aux arts de l'Afrique, de l'Océanie et des Amériques. C'est aussi l'un des rares, en Europe, pour lesquels l'art n'est pas une simple dimension sociologique ou ethnographique, une sorte de phénomène marginal parce que difficilement réductible avec des paramètres scientifiques. Le M.A.A.O.A est un musée d'art, c'est à dire qu'il montre des formes, des agencements de volumes et de lignes faits de manière consciente par des hommes que nous nommons des artistes. Cette approche esthétique, contemplative, qui touche parfois, chez certains, à la dévotion, n'est cependant pas irrationnelle.

Carlos Museum's collection

The Carlos Museum's collection of 19th and 20th century African art offers valuable insight into African artistic expressions in the variety of their forms, functions, and cultures of origin. A majority of the objects come from West Africa, with a focus on the numerous cultures of Nigeria, Benin (formerly Dahomey), and the Cameroon Grassfields. The rest are from the Equatorial Central region of the continent, located mainly in the modern state of Zaïre.

Priscilla Tyler and Maree Brooks Collection of Inuit Art

Tyler and Brooks’ passion for Inuit art took them back to the Arctic time and time again: they met people, visited their homes, took photographs, and taped conversations, songs, and stories in an effort to learn about the North and its culture. Their interest in art from all regions of the Arctic took them to many different places - works from Alaska, Siberia, and Greenland, as well as the Canadian communities of Baker Lake, Cape Dorset, Povungnituk, Holman Island, Inukjuak, and Pangnirtung, among others, are represented in their collection. t
