In this book, British Nigerian artist Yinka Shonibare (born 1962) challenges conceptions of "good taste," presenting works from the Arts Council Collection--from sculpture and painting to wallpaper and handbags--that provocatively oppose the anti-decorative stance of Adolf Loos' 1908 Ornament and Crime.
