Noh performances reflect upon the daily life and times of the Japanese. An extremely stylized art form which dates back to the feudal period, the masks used convey the mood and character of the part played by the performer. Thus, each mask is a manifestation of elegant simplicity and rustic tranquility.

lots of Nice masks and good information here. also: "Oni, which we believe is a unique phenomenon that is embedded in deep and unknown levels of the human mind, plays a relevant role in our lives at times of transition.

The Huichol Indians express their beliefs and deep religious feeling through their art. To the Huichols, religion is not a part of life, it is life. Their art is a direct extension of their religion and it is made not from the standpoint of decoration, but to give profound expression to concepts of spiritual beliefs. Traditional Huichol art, whether it be meticulous beadwork, yarn paintings, masks, votive bowls and arrows or striking embroidered and woven personal adornments, are beautiful not only from the aesthetic standpoint but from the psychological as well. The art consists of many symbols, which tell the story of each piece.
