Among the most colorful and fascinating of these festivals were the masked dance ceremonies known as Tsam. These ceremonies, introduced in the eighteenth century, were held around the New Year with the purpose of destroying the evil that had accrued during the past year. Performed by monks, the characters portrayed in the dances included a wide variety of terrifying deities from the Lamaist pantheon. Today, however, in newly independent Mongolia Tsam ceremonies are once again being performed.

a Step by Step guide to creating your own Life Mask! Welcome! I've created this site because I've discovered that so many people, like me, are absolutely fascinated with masks. This site is a kind of "e-guide" that will lead your easily and successfully through both the technical steps (it's easy-really I promise!) as well as some of the more profound therapeutic applications and soulful self-discovery that can be realized by making your own (or another's) Life-Mask. For starters you might want to take a look at About Masks and a few Examples of Self-Masks? or, if you're ready to dive in and get started, you can just jump right in to Making a Face Mask and let your Self-Mask begin! I offer Mask Making Workshops, and I Create Commissioned Life Portrait Sculptures of people using the life casting as a mold for a ceramic or bronze finished piece...

People from all continents know the traditional use of papier-mache in a large variety: dolls, masks, puppets, toys, decorations,... That is because it's such a cheap, varied, easily obtainable and processable material. But this hasn't always been the case. For centuries, paper was very valuable and the processing of it into papier-mache was a time-consuming and labour-intensive process. For the history freaks among you, we gladly present a historical-geographical survey.

Photos of masks, costumes, ceremonies, sacred dances. Among the tribes portayed are Hopi, Zuni, Tewa. The North American Indian by Edward S. Curtis is one of the most significant and controversial representations of traditional American Indian culture ever produced. Issued in a limited edition from 1907-1930, the publication continues to exert a major influence on the image of Indians in popular culture. Curtis said he wanted to document "the old time Indian, his dress, his ceremonies, his life and manners." In over 2000 photogravure plates and narrative, Curtis portrayed the traditional customs and lifeways of eighty Indian tribes. Sensitive Images and Text This online collection contains all of the images and caption text as originally published in The North American Indian. The captions reflect a perspective that Indians were "primitive" people whose traditional cultures and ways of life were disappearing. In his representation of Indians as the "vanishing race," Curtis echoes the prevailing view held by Euro-Americans in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Contemporary readers should interpret the captions in that context. Some captions and images portray ceremonial rituals and objects that were not intended for viewing by the uninitiated. No images have been excluded or specially labeled. They are included in this digital collection in order to represent the work fully
