Tunji Adeniyi-Jones is a painter whose work is heavily steeped in West African aesthetics; his imagery is a dedication and an homage – a preservation of his Yoruban heritage that also questions idolatry from a distinctly diasporic perspective. Marking Adeniyi-Jones' inclusion in the Nigerian Pavilion at the 2024 Venice Biennale, this monographic publication looks back at his artistic output over the course of his career to date. The book features the artist's paintings, works on paper, and prints and features essays by Albert Neuendorf and Ekow Eshun, as well as a conversation between Adeniyi-Jones and Osei Bonsu.
