AFRICAN GALLERIES NOW – ARTSY ONLINE

MOVART places the focus on the observation of the most contemporary status-of-the-world issues through the mediating gaze of the art object, where the rawness of the current reality is similarly tamed and enhanced in the different matters that occupy each of the artists we selected and the approach they chose to depict it.

Thus, Fidel Évora reflects on the place of the individual in society through the exploration of the collective and private identity, Kwame Sousa offers a dosis of positivity in his depiction of an African growing self-consciousness and autonomy, Keyezua articulates an aestheticization of the drama of migration where beauty serves to tragedy without affecting the aim of denounce and Mário Macilau evidences the connection between environmental and social catastrophes caused by the global patterns of production and consumption of technology.
