Synopsis
Yinka Shonibare (b. 1962), a Nigerian-English artist and Turner Prize nominee who has had major international solo exhibitions, likes to unite different worlds in a single space because he himself is a product of multiculturalism. His reflections on identity and memory, often rendered as wax models of middle-class Victorian figures represented as headless mannequins, are instantly recognizable. Here, models, sculptures, photographs, and videos by Shonibare are exhibited in rooms at the Nouveau Musée National de Monaco. HRH Princess Caroline of Hanover, daughter of the late Prince Rainier and Princess Grace of Monaco, contributes a foreword., *The eyes of a contemporary artist accompany us in discovering the art treasures in the Nouveau Musée National de Monaco Yinka Shonibare, MBE, an artist of Nigerian origins living in London, where he was born in 1962, likes to unite different worlds in a single space, because he himself is a product of the multi-culturalism that now pervades the modern world. His reflections on identity and memory blend these two cultures in an entirely new aesthetic idiom. When he began to use wax in the 1990s as the material with which he modelled figures from the middle classes of the Victorian era, whom he represented as headless mannequins, he created an artistic trademark that made his work instantly recognizable. Whether models, sculptures, photographs or videos, the artworks of Yinka Shonibare have been exhibited in rooms of the Nouveau Musée National de Monaco that are rarely open to the public, and which encourage us to explore this part of the Principality's artistic history. Monte Carlo has always been the center of a lively performing arts scene, and there are several collections that reflect this fact: Visconti's 'maquettothèque' at the Monte Carlo opera, Eugène Frey's extraordinary and brightly colored stage sets, the curious collection of transparent paintings that belonged to the Marquis du Périer du Mouriez, religious boxes from the Galéa Collection made by Carmelite monks in Provence, and thousands of other artificialia unearthed in the storerooms. A costume preservation workshop, which will remain open throughout the exhibition, will enable visitors to discover one of the hidden faces of the museum.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

The seller is one of the best there is - high quality books, reasonable prices, securely packaged.
I do, however, recommend some changes to their shipping - they show a shipper (SortHub) on eBay, but the tracking # they email is for a different carrier. It’s difficult to know where my purchase is.
This time, it was delivered a week late. In the grand scheme of things not a big deal. But it shouldn’t be this difficult to accurately track my purchase.
