ECLECTICA CONTEMPORARY
BOOTH C18
Based in the heart of Cape Town, South Africa, eclectica contemporary sees
itself as an African gallery with an international vision. Four African artists from Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, each caught in inherited grievance, yet never wholly defined by their colonial past, each, rather, inspired by the power of painting to shapeshift reality, invoke the fantastical, reinvent an on-going and compromising norm – black abjection, black misrepresentation. Titled ‘It feels like I’m talking to the moon, eclectica contemporary’s contribution to AKAA 2022 is designed to further debate on on-going experimentation in contemporary African painting, its European inspiration, and its diasporic and global impact. A thrilling gamble indeed.
