Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This abstract artwork features a bold splash of vibrant purple amidst a monochromatic, textured background. The predominant shapes are organic and asymmetrical, creating a sense of movement and energy. The artist's expressive brushstrokes and the interplay of light and shadow suggest a raw, emotive quality. The piece appears to be a powerful exploration of contrasts, both in terms of color and technique, inviting the viewer to contemplate the interplay between the tangible and the intangible. The artist's intention seems to be to evoke a deeply personal, even subconscious, response through this visually captivating and conceptually engaging work. ...

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. ...
