Ibou Ndoye: Forms of Faces (New Drawing Series Paperback)
$12.00
Ibou Ndoye creates beautifully primal, vibrant books of images that spring from his West African roots and reflect all the bustling energy of his experience of the NYC area. This publication is a reproduction of a unique book on cardboard made by Ibou Ndoye in 2011. Created with stencil cut-outs, acrylic and latex paints and drawing materials, it is one of several from that year's output that employs masks and identity as a common theme.
About the Author: Ibou Ndoye blends his West African culture with his immersion in urban life in the NYC/Jersey City area to produce art and narratives that are both relevant and rooted in his strong sense of artistic and social heritage. Born in Dakar, Senegal, he became active as an artist there in the 1980s painting murals and making paintings on glass as part of the Set Setal movement.. Moving to the US in 2001, he continues to be an active presence, sharing his talent through exhibitions, workshops and classes in a wide variety of institutions including schools, museums, adult day care centers, homeless shelters and libraries from Brooklyn to Philadelphia.
