Yinka Shonibare Cbe: End Of Empire
Auteur(s) : Collectif
Exhibition at the Museum der Moderne, Salzburg, 22 May - 12 September, 2021
Since the 1990s, the British-Nigerian artist Yinka Shonibare CBE (1962-) examines complex themes like hybrid identities, colonialism and power structures with unique irony. He has developed opulently executed sculptures and installations, colourful collages and theatrically staged photographs and films. To do so he transforms episodes from art and history whose effects influence our present-day lives.
This richly-illustrated exhibition catalogue focuses on three decades of his artistic oeuvre; it takes up the traces of colonialism and its consequences for role models, worldviews and body images in the works of Shonibare.
