I haven't been able to determine exactly what all was featured in the "Le Jeu" exhibition at Galerie Michelle Boulet advertised by this poster

Mexican Folk Art Wooden Alebrije in the Manner of Manuel Jimenez marble Belgium sculpture Made entirely of natural (un-dyed)This is a handmade wooden Alebrije, or carved wooden animal, from Oaxaca, Mexico, very much in the manner of renowned Alebrije creator Manual Jimenez, if not made by him specifically, which it might be. But I am not quite sure what animal it is meant to represent exactly! The neck is not quite long to be a giraffe (though he did some terrific giraffes, which this closely resembles but for the shorter neck and tail), but too long to be a deer, I think.
