It seems that the modern art world wants the artist to be restricted to the haul and carry, booth setup, travel, out of town hotel expenses, adverse weather, damage to artwork, and watch theย crowds meander by art show circuit rather than using local art for interior decorating or seriousย art show displays in art centers or galleries.ย Communities like art shows that draw crowds and money into their area, and seem determinedย to keep the art show circuit working to their own advantage.ย ย
Janet Rady Fine Art is pleased to present ‘Life Is A Beautiful Colour,’ a group show ofย emerging contemporary African artists co-curated by Hyacinthe Kouassi and Elorm Gosu.
Including works by Frank Asso, Alex Gbiziรฉ, Muramuzi JohnBosco, Joseph Kojo Hoggar,ย Qhamanande Maswana, Osman Salifu and Affen Segun the exhibition brings together works thatย exude and celebrate the vibrancy and warmth of the contemporary lived experience across theย continent of Africa.
From representations of the fast pace of city life, the communal relationshipsย shared in villages, to quieter more focused and confronting portraits of African youth, though theย works in this show were created by artists from nations as diverse as their form and subjectย matter.
A local creative label & Gallery YOUNGCLUB launched BRAX – the first gallery-created character, as an art series based on youth and artists.ย
In the image of a young artist, BRAX explores and grows in its adventure journey, creating a series of stories in the dreamland, vividly presenting the value and adventurousness of the young generation.
BRAX is a forever 17-years-old character keeping its identity hidden by wearing a doll costume.
It can be a character representing any of us in society. This 17-year-old teenager starts his own journey with its costume, arouses the resonance of young artists on the way of creation, and brings back memories of their youth.
