Wael Shawky uses a range of media to explore issues of history, religion, culture and the effects of globalisation on society today.
Accompanying Wael Shawky's exhibition at the Serpentine Gallery, this book contains three short stories authored by Mohamed Mustagab and drawings by Shawky.
In photographs, installations, videos and performances, Wael Shawky mines traditions of entertainment and performance through multilayered historical reconstructions that force viewers to navigate the territory of truth, myth, stereotype and cliché.
