Founded in 2019 by Barbara Kokpavo, a serial entrepreneur and art lover, Gallery Soview is a contemporary art gallery located in the heart of Accra, Ghana. Focused on helping artists from Africa emerge and get better visibility inside and outside the continent, Gallery Soview organizes exhibitions and events to promote and develop artists’ careers. The founder also aims at creating emulation on the West African art scene, French and English speaking combined, with the ambition to stimulate the structuration of the art market locally and facilitate inter-connectivity with the international one. Artists presented by the gallery have in common their use of innovative techniques and up-cycled materials, proposing a deep exploration of Africa’s past, present and future, creating a new narrative at the crossroads of realism and afro-optimism.
