The Jean Pigozzi African Art Collection
ACM, Mansaray, Rigo 23 & Volyazlovsky, Andrew Edlin Gallery, New York, NY
from 17/06/2010 to 03/09/2010
The Andrew Edlin Gallery presents a selection of works by Abu Bakarr Mansaray as part of a 4-artist summer exhibition.
Mansaray's featured works are populated with ghostly forms. Overtly violent and defiant, they depict anthropomorphized (hominoid) figures mutilated and dismembered by warfare, disease and humiliation. His characters are immersed in streams of blood and gunfire, surrounded by broken glass and strewn with a range of vengeful texts (The Day You See My Face You Will Never See the Next Sunrise).
