📢Upcoming IG live😎 SO excited that we will be joined by our founding artist, @SHONIBARESTUDIO on Friday 30 September, over on our IG channel (and if you aren't following us on IG...I'd ask why not🤔).
Yinka will be in conversation with artistic director @AshleyAdjaye
Opening Saturday 17 September @Goodman_Gallery in Cape Town is @SHONIBARESTUDIO' solo exhibition ‘Restitution of the Mind and Soul’. For this latest body of work, Shonibare considers how African aesthetics have shaped western modernist expression.
Visit @sketchlondon to view @SHONIBARESTUDIO's installation ‘Alien Woman on Flying Machine’, 2011. The work explores Yinka Shonibare CBE’s interest in early air travel, space exploration and science fiction while examining racial prejudice, xenophobia and ideas of ‘otherness’.
