A throwback to El Anatsui's wood carving days

Curated by Mae-Ling Lokko, Shard Song, a solo exhibition by El Anatsui, shows from the 8th March to the 31st May, 2022 at the new Efie Gallery in Dubai.

The show presents a new series of wood panel sculptures that are reminiscent of the master sculptor’s prevalent style of the late 80’s and the 90’s and the evolution of his work into what he is now most well known for, the massive bottle-cap tapestries.

The show’s creative director is Aida Muluneh.
