Over the past five 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.
Regions like South-Africa, Ghana, Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Cameroon, East-Africa (Kenia, Uganda, Ethiopia) and North Africa are strongly represented. With a focus on young artists, the exhibition is not a comprehensive overview of African art, but an anthology from an emerging art scene that has gained an increasingly prominent place in the international art firmament in recent years.
From breathtaking paintings to mesmerizing sculptures, striking photographs to intricate textile art, and innovative recycled creations, AFRICA SUPERNOVA will celebrate the astounding talents that have propelled Africa to the forefront of the global art scene.
