ACM, Mansaray, Rigo 23 & Volyazlovsky, Andrew Edlin Gallery, New York, NY
from 06/17/10 to 08/14/10
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).

Insiders, CAPC de Bordeaux, France
from 10/09/09 to 02/07/10
La manifestation Insiders rassemble plus de quatre-vingts artistes, architectes et collectifs de tous horizons qui ont en commun des facons de deborder des limites de leurs disciplines. A la manière des premiers folkloristes, les artistes contemporains se tournent vers une pratique de recensement de matériaux culturels, tandis que les architectes proposent des modes d'exercices alternatifs en relation avec de nouveaux modes d'appropriation de la ville et de l'architecture. La sélection des projets exposés résulte d'une enquête dans les champs respectifs de l'art, et de l'architecture, sur les interrelations entre cultures savantes et cultures populaires. Face aux questions sociales et économiques qui travaillent le monde, face au modèle d'une culture globale, Insiders explore la singularite des dynamiques d'échanges et d'organisations inédites porteuses de nouvelles valeurs collectives.
