The Jean Pigozzi African Art Collection

AFRICA. Raccontare un mondo, PAC Padiglione d’Arte Contemporanea, Milano, Italia

from 27/06/2017 to 11/09/2017



With a sub-Saharan overview the exhibition investigates today's African art through the works of 32 contemporary african artists.

The exhibition investigates today's African art, between Westerness and Africanism; crossing political, economical and gender issues; between the influences of the surrounding world and the future of the continent. Will Africa ever be independent from the West? Which are the new challenges? The 32 invited artists will provide a fourfold sub-Saharan overview: After the Independence, Introspection of the Identity, Africa Generation, the Body and Politics of the Distance.
