In #kunsthalkade in Amersfoort een heel inspirerende tentoonstelling van Afrikaanse kunstenaars uit een privéverzameling. Veel schilderkunst, heerlijk! 1 #mattkayem 2 #zembaluzamba 3 # marysibande 4 #joylabinjo 5 #esirierherieneessi 6 #emmaodumade Groot aantal voor mij onbekende kunstenaars, goed om meer van hen te zien!

Kleurrijke tentoonstelling 'Africa Supernova' in de KunsthalKade in Amersfoort. Tekst schilderij: 'Breakfast from England in Buganda' Matt Kayem heeft een esthetiek ontwikkeld die 'Afropop' wordt genoemd en waarin westerse en Afrikaanse kunstvormen worden samengevoegd. De 'Kente' stoffen (Dutch wax print) en schorsdoek symboliseren het Afrikaanse perspectief, terwijl denim een westerse lading toevoegt. Samen vormen ze een ideologie die niet alleen Kayems persoonlijkheid vertegenwoordigt, maar ook de maatschappij om hem heen in het hedendaagse Afrika weerspiegelt. Kayem: "In mijn werk ga ik meestal terug naar het prekoloniale Afrika of Buganda (regio in Oeganda), waar ik vandaan kom, en zoek ik dingen uit die dagelijks worden gebruikt, vooral de schorsdoek, een traditionele stof die al eeuwenlang door mijn etnische groep wordt gemaakt. Ik gebruik deze stof in combinatie met spijkerstof en moderne items zoals stadskleding om commentaar te leveren en mijn positie te benadrukken als een jonge 'gemoderniseerde' Afrikaan die probeert weer aansluiting te vinden bij het uitgeputte verleden dat gepaard ging met het kolonialisme." #africanart #colourfulart #kunsthalkade #mattkayem #museumbezoek

AFRICA SUPERNOVA A collection by Carla and Pieter Schulting Opening September 24th at Kunsthal KAdE, The Netherlands Over the past years, Carla and Pieter Schulting have assembled an extensive collection of 170 artworks by 154 artists from 33 African countries and the African diaspora. The exhibition Africa Supernova presents a large cross-section of the collection, showing how diverse, complex, and promising the artistic development of contemporary African art is. The exhibition is an anthology from an emerging art scene that has recently gained an increasingly prominent place in the international art firmament. The selection, which includes works by @mattkayem, presents Africa from within and does so with great self-awareness, giving a layered picture of how African artists reflect on their self-image and how their imagination radiates to the whole world. @schultingartcollection @mattkayem @kunsthal_kade_amersfoort @akkaproject Matt Kayem Breakfast from England, In Buganda Acrylics, oil pastels on denim, bark-cloth and Dutch-wax print 2021 122 x 152 cm For inquiries about available works by Matt please DM #africasupernova #kunsthalkade #MattKayem #akkaproject

Artist: Matt Kayem (Uganda, 1991). "Breakfast from England in Buganda", 2021. Acrylic, oil pastels on denim, bark-cloth and Dutch-wax print. 122 x 152 cm. Matt Kayem has developed an aesthetic called “Afropop” in which Western and the African art forms are merged. The Dutch-wax print, “kente” and bark-cloth stand in for the African perspective, whereas the denim provides the western touch. Together they form an ideology which not only represents Kayem’s persona but also mirrors the society around him in present day Africa. @mattkayem #mattkayem @akkaproject_official #akkaproject #africanart #africancontemporaryart #africanartist #ugandaartist
