Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This striking contemporary artwork features a bold, abstract composition rendered in vivid shades of red and black. The central element appears to be a distorted, organic form reminiscent of a creature or organism, with intricate patterns and textures that suggest a sense of energy and movement. The artwork's use of strong, contrasting colors, along with the dynamic composition, creates a visually arresting and thought-provoking piece that invites the viewer to explore its underlying themes and symbolism. The artist's intention may be to challenge perceptions and evoke a visceral response, drawing on the power of abstraction to convey complex ideas about the natural world or the human experience. ...

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. ...
