This famous work features five portrait busts representing the ancient Egyptian Queen Nefertiti, painted in contrasting colour tones, from light oatmeal to dark brown. The subtle and nuanced subject matter of the installation provokes controversial questions about the contested racial identity of ancient Egyptians.https://museumgeographies.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/img_20170218_113857-e1490061288653.jpgIMG_20170218_113857Sculpturehttps://museumgeographies.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/img_20170218_113202.jpgIMG_20170218_113202Detail from the artwork "Skipping Girl" (2009) by Royal Academician Yinka Shonibare MBE, comprising a life-size, headless fibreglass mannequin, dressed in Dutch wax-printed cotton textiles.2017-03-22T22:23:32+00:00monthlyhttps://museumgeographies.com/2017/02/28/circa-1970-and-beyond-at-the-studio-museum-in-harlem-new-york/https://museumgeographies.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/img_20170217_182421-e1488496223422.jpgimg_20170217_182421"R.S.V.P. V, 1976" by Senga Nengudi (B. 1943, Chicago, IL). The sculptor and performance artist has described this work from her 1975/6 "R.S.V.P" series as offering an "abstracted reflection of used bodies" in ways that connect the history of figurative art with assemblage and also feminism - particularly black feminism/womanism.
