Wangechi Mutu

The ever-evolving strangeness and beauty of Kenyan artist Wangechi Mutu’s work has made her one of the pre-eminent stars of the contemporary art world, and its development is clearly and comprehensively showcased in this Phaidon monograph. As brilliant when she is working with collage as she is a sculptor and watercolourist, Mutu’s insouciant ease within an array of different media is remarkable, and her instantly recognisable iconography consistently beguiles and provokes.
