#12: “No Woman, No Cry” by Chris Ofili – Various exhibitions in the U.S.
Chris Ofili’s No Woman, No Cry (1998) addresses themes of race and identity. By using materials like beads and elephant dung, Ofili confronted viewers with the complexity of emotions and cultural narratives, challenging perceptions of both art and its subjects. An October 1998 headline in The Times read: “Great works of art or just a pile of dung?”
