Wangechi Mutu Category : Arts Date / Period : February 2 to March 22, 2012 BOOKMARK Telephone: 514 847 6226 Toll-free: Reservation: E-mail: info@macm.org URL: http://www.macm.org Overview Overview Combining poetic symbolism and socio-political critique, this remarkable work embeds a memory of the land and its age-old traditions in current aesthetic and political concerns. The installation comprises a hundred or so ceramic figurines with leather wings and feather antennae.Pinned to the walls in rows, these part-human, part-animal figures form a monumental, strikingly beautiful bestiary on an intrusive scale and with a recurring, and disturbing, hybrid female image. Schedule Tuesday to Sunday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Wednesday, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Open Monday holidays.
