Drawn from the CBH Bank Collection, More than Meets the Eye charts the evolution of African and African diaspora art from early modernist pioneers to today’s global voices, in a landmark exhibition that redefines the continent’s place in modern art.
African and African diaspora art is having a long-overdue moment in the global spotlight. More than Meets the Eye, the ambitious exhibition currently on view at the Musée Rath in Geneva, offers a sweeping and breathtaking exploration of nearly a century of African modernism and contemporary expression. Curated from the Compagnie Bancaire Helvétique (CBH) Bank’s outstanding art collection, this survey is both a revelation and a reckoning – a vibrant testament to Africa’s artistic legacies and a celebration of the continent’s multiplicity of voices, visions and visual vocabularies.
