Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This whimsical contemporary artwork features a simple black-and-white line drawing on a light background. The main element is a boombox-like device, with two large speakers and various dials or knobs. Atop the boombox stands a cartoon-like figure smoking a cigarette, while a stylized smoke plume emerges from the figure. The overall composition conveys a sense of playfulness and youthful rebellion, hinting at themes of music, technology, and counterculture. The artist's distinctive hand-drawn style and the inclusion of surreal, symbolic elements suggest a commentary on the relationship between modern life and personal expression. ...

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. ...
