His scenes capture the private lives of his subjects, in moments of thought, rest and recreation, inviting the viewer to imagine alternative narratives surrounding images of the Black experience. These paintings carried a special significance when they were exhibited within the Fondation Le Corbusier - Maison La Roche, a gallery intended for a collection of 20th-century abstract art, whose most famous figures borrowed the language of African art but assigned little merit to its creators.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 12.7 x 9.7 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 11, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51775257903392,"sku":"9788867496204","price":37.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/3317e6f619ccf70fe0e0f8470d68aa60.webp?v=1780459943","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/ludovic-nkoth-what-if-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
