Dense, meticulous cross-hatching covers the surfaces of Moussa Kone’s detailed ink drawings, which depict surreal, allegorical scenes of human folly and bizarre plights. Images of megalomania, herd behavior and violence sit alongside more poetical drawing cycles of dancers and faceless juries massed around a corpse. This volume comprehensively appraises his work.
