Artist Influenced by african culture

This mask was used for a ceremony in the 19th century. Just from this mask you can see how artist where influenced by African culture.
An example is "The Young Ladies of Avignon" by Picasso the painting is clearly influenced by this mask as it have similar resemblance to the women on the far right. I got these images from : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picasso%27s_African_Period
Pablo Picasso had a 2 year African culture influence phase where the majority of his work was base and inspired by African culture.
A contemporary artist who goes by the name of "Kehinde Wiley" has been influence by African culture, he is known for turning art from history into contemporary African paintings.
This is Ice T posing as napolen.
Wiley uses African American men in his portraits of manly famous people, to create his African paintings
