"Ethnic Mask Head" is a sculptural work by French artist Henri Gaudier-Brzeska (1891–1915), a pioneer of modern sculpture and a prominent figure in the Vorticist movement. Created during a period of intense experimentation and innovation in the arts, Gaudier-Brzeska's work reflects the fascination with non-Western art that was prevalent among many European artists in the early 20th century. The piece is emblematic of his interest in the simplification of forms and the expressive potential of direct carving, a technique he championed against the more traditional methods of modeling and casting.

The sculpture, whose exact date of creation is uncertain, is part of a series of works in which Gaudier-Brzeska explored the visual language of masks from various ethnic cultures. These masks, with their stylized features and powerful lines, provided a source of inspiration for the artist's exploration of new aesthetic ideas. "Ethnic Mask Head" is characterized by its bold, abstracted features and the raw energy conveyed through its chiseled surfaces. The work demonstrates Gaudier-Brzeska's ability to distill human and animal forms into essential shapes, stripping away detail to achieve a more immediate and visceral impact.

Henri Gaudier-Brzeska's career was tragically cut short when he was killed in combat during World War I at the age of 23. Despite his brief career, his contributions to modern sculpture were significant, and "Ethnic Mask Head" stands as a testament to his innovative spirit and his role in the development of modernist art. The sculpture is held in various art collections and has been exhibited in museums that showcase modern art and the Vorticist movement. It continues to be studied and admired for its raw power and its place in the history of modern art.
