Caught up in a game of oware, players review their opponent's move. Kwame Frimpong captures the tense excitement in hand-carved sese wood. Designed for two players, oware challenges mental agility and alertness. Legend says that oware was invented by Sindillo, the son of the first man, Maitoumbe, and was originally called geshe. Today, some version of it is played in nearly every African country.
