I've told you before that I loved the Chapman Brothers exhibition which is currently on at White Cube in Hoxton. But I did say I wouldn't tell you too much about it, as it would spoil the surprise. But the one friend of mine who did go to see it on my recommendation came back saying he didn't get it - it was just a collection of African masks, ho-hum.
Perhaps you'll get the joke from these pictures, and if I tell you that the show is collection of primitive trophies and initiation masks from the former colonial regions of Camgib, Seirf and Ekoc. It makes a good companion piece to the Olmeca Tequila show currently at the Royal Academy...
