description: "Georges Adéagbo is an internationally recognized conceptual artist. Since the early 1970s he has developed a distinctive practice of assemblage, combining found objects, handwritten texts, and artworks commissioned from Beninese artisans. His installations, which he describes as a “Tribunal of Things,” question canonized narratives from Western perspectives and deconstruct notions of center and periphery. They consistently challenge simplistic distinctions between popular and elite culture, the superior and the inferior, the banal and the profound, and the sacred and the secular."
