Yinka Shonibare's "Suspended States" Exhibition At Serpentine South In London
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM - APRIL 11, 2024: A visitor looks at a new large-scale installation titled “War Library” (2024) consisting of 5,000 books bound in Dutch wax print representing conflicts and peace treaties during a photocall for Yinka Shonibare's "Suspended States" exhibition at Serpentine South in London, United Kingdom on April 11, 2024. The first solo exhibition of Shonibare’s work in a London public institution for over 20 years explores central themes of legacies of colonial power, sites of refuge and shelter as well as the ecological impact of colonisation, the European legacy of imperialism and consequential attempts at peace.
