ROBERT AND LILLIAN MONTALTO BOHLEN GALLERY
African art from a range of regions and traditions is on view in this light-filled oasis in the new Frankel Wing, with particular strength in work from Central Africa. Anchored by a nearly life-sized maternity figure from the Urhobo people, the gallery installation explores the question of how what were originally made as ritual objects function within the context of a modern-day museum.
