Painting by Margaret Rose Vendryes: Bobo Minnie, African Diva, available at Childs Gallery, Boston

Margaret Rose Vendryes

Jamaican-American (1955-2022)

Bobo Minnie, African Diva, 2010
Oil and cold wax on canvas and paper
36×36IN.CM

Bobo Minnie (featuring Minnie Riperton) is a work from the artist’s African Diva Project, which explores the role of gender in African cultures and in contemporary society. Each square canvas is modeled after an LP cover featuring a Black female music legend wearing an African tribal mask. While these masks are traditionally danced by men – even when representing female deities or ancestors – Vendryes uses them to empower the divas, giving these dynamic female performers agency and protection by replacing their psychological masks with literal ones.
