Africa First was founded by Serge Tiroche in 2017 as a platform to support and promote Contemporary Art from the continent. An active collector of African Contemporary art for over a decade, he decided to focus his private collecting and residency program on emerging artists from Africa and its diaspora. He partners with LyS Contemporary Art, a contemporary art platform, offering a range of curatorial services focused on emerging artists. The platform aims to maintain a close interface, a dialog to integrate passionate art lovers with the artists and the artworks, through programming that includes: PopUp exhibitions, art fairs and special events. Our values are reflected by our coup de coeur approach, investigating cultural change and following with dedication the evolution of society through contemporary art in diverse mediums.
