Reference: MS 381333/21
General Note:
Acquisition: The donation was made to SOAS Library in June 2018 by Elsbeth Court, an academic who teaches African Art on the IFCELS course at SOAS, with the support and agreement of the artist Hassan Musa.
General Note:
Mail Art. On a marbled background, perhaps a sunset, Musa draws and pastes a satirical landcape of oil rigs with the august French culture minister Andre Malraux and an oil sheikh; both men are wearing black gowns, a further touch of irony that relates to the title.
