Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork presents a striking visual composition against a vibrant red background. The prominent figures, rendered in flowing white garments, appear to be in motion, their elongated forms and billowing fabrics creating a sense of dynamism and energy. The contrasting palette of the red backdrop and the white costumes generates a captivating visual tension, while the obscured or partially hidden faces add an air of mystery to the scene. The style and technique employed suggest a focus on capturing the expressive movement and ethereal quality of the figures, potentially conveying a symbolic or narrative exploration of themes such as spirituality or the human condition. The historical or artistic context of this piece may reveal insights into the artist's intentions and the broader cultural or conceptual framework within which it was created. ...

Artist

Kader Diaby

, Ivorian

As an inspired and polymorphic creator, Kader Diaby shares his poetry and sensitivity through fashion as well as through his photographs. His work inhabits the question of concordances between our intimate and collective identities and resonates more broadly with a redefinition of the plural ways of being African today, in order to move from a subjugated identity to a chosen identity.

Gallery

Galerie Cécile Fakhoury

Abidjan, Paris, Dakar

Galerie Cecile Fakhoury opened its doors in Abidjan, Ivory Coast in September 2012. In May 2018, the gallery inaugurated its second space in Dakar, Senegal and a showroom in Paris, France. Shortly after, in March 2020, a new project space dedicated to emerging artists from Africa opened in Abidjan. In October 2021, Galerie Cecile Fakhoury inaugurated another gallery, opening in the 8th arrondissement of Paris on Avenue Matignon. The gallery promotes contemporary art from Africa and the Diaspora by providing visibility to the artistic diversity and creative spirit from the continent. Through its programming of solo and group exhibitions, participation in international art fairs, biennales, and collaboration with international galleries, Cecile Fakhoury is a leading force putting contemporary African art on the global map. The artists represented by the gallery are distinguished by their cultural identities and stories, they create a new language that crosses geographical boundaries and familiarities. They are observers of the world they live in, critics of society, and committed to their positions living within complex histories. In turn, they ask us to reconsider our own relation to the world. ...
