'The Puppeteer, 2014' and 'L’Artiste et la reine, 2014' by the Haitian-Canadian artist Marie-Geneviève Morin, artistically known as ‘M’.
Each of M’s paintings represents the time, physical space and mood she inhabits at the moment, without offering interpretations or commentaries relating to the external world she lives in. As such, the characters, icons and messages on the canvases harness her channelled energy and emotional state of mind.

'Current of harmonic waves, 2015' by Angolan artist Daniela Ribeiro

Raissa Okoi's interview with the renowned African collector Sindika Dokolo @galleryofafricanart - regarding art investment - for @bbcafrique Cash Éco.
The interview has been broadcasted on the BBC in certain French-speaking West African countries as well as on the programme's website.

#Throwback to a solo exhibition in 2016 @galleryofafricanart featuring works by the Senegalese artist Momar Seck ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
'Reflects, 2015'⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
'Agneaux en lumière, 2016'
Installation: 'Connecting divers horizon, 2016' ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Through the use of recycled materials and discarded objects, Momar creates diverse works filled with colour and texture. While, to some observers these scraps of textiles, wood, plastic, and tin collected from the streets of Dakar may seem like “rubbish”, Momar’s deft creations give them a “new life” – a ‘’symbolic charge’’- which enables him to explore themes of cultural diversity and identity. Through his works he seeks to immerse the viewer in the realities of “everyday life” by evoking memories and traces of their origin, which in turn can be shifted and transformed into distinctive works of art. His ‘’pluralistic units’’ as he refers to them, display and symbolize the fragile interdependent unity between different cultures and cosmologies.
As Momar says: "Mon travail artistique est tiré de mon background culturel et se nourrit du contact avec les autres cultures." | Translation to English: “My artistic work takes its source from my cultural background, and it is nourished by the ongoing contact I have with different cultures.”

#Throwback to "The Spirit of Makonde", a solo exhibition in 2014 @galleryofafricanart featuring works by Tanzanian artist George Lilanga (1934-2005)
Lilanga’s work draws upon the myths and cosmological beliefs of his Makonde heritage. The stylised figures that populate his work are believed to be heirs to the native spirits of Makonde cosmology. Known as Shetanis by the Makonde, these unruly spirits or devils are thought to be responsible for one’s misfortune in life. Lilanga’s Shetanis however, are not of the malevolent kind. His brightly coloured sculptures are humanised in their reflection of daily scenes from ordinary life. Each carved from a single block of wood and painted in vivid oil based enamels; Lilanga’s Shetani’s are shown brushing their teeth, joyfully at play or on the ubiquitous mobile phone. These works dated from the late 1990s, reveal Lilanga’s keen eye for social observation and also serve as a critique of contemporary African culture.

'L'art de guérir (avec Scheherazade), 2007'
'The art of healing (with Scheherazade), 2007' | Acrylic on fabric and wood.
According to MUSA: “My image refers to Scheherazade, the fabulous storyteller of the Arabian Nights. Scheherazade managed to have absolute control over her husband, the Sultan of Baghdad. She was in position to find justice for all of the women slaughtered by the inconsolable broken-hearted Sultan. Unfortunately for the victims, Scheherazade preferred to turn the page and protect her own family business. Modern readers of the Arabian Nights also keep turning the pages of this fantastic tale and pretend not to notice the victims who crowd the thousand and one stories.”

GAFRA's Summer Exhibition - 3rd August - 15th September 2018, featuring works by Rewa and several other artists. 'Somadina, 2017' & 'Apun'Anwu, 2017' “I subconsciously imbibe my women with my own spirit via my colour choices. Sometimes I sit in reverie, staring at my unfinished monochrome woman, conversing with her until we both arrive at a natural confluence. Sometimes, we are at odds and she becomes almost impossible to finish. At other times, we fare so smoothly that she translates across promptly.” - REWA #galleryofafricanart#GAFRA#Rewa#Nigeria#Nigerianartist #artbyrewa#contemporaryart#mayfair#londonart#diaspora #artlondon#artlovers#culture#heritage#artcollectors #contemporaryafricanart#diasporanart#creative #africanart#artmuseums#artfoundations
