Zoom on the African scene
At a time when the African contemporary art scene is becoming increasingly visible, the Pour l’art pour l’Afrique association presents the third edition of its Traversées africaines event, which will take place from 11 to 31 May 2023. For the third consecutive year, the public is invited to meet artists and works from the African continent and its diaspora through a tour of 29 Parisian galleries, supported by the Ile-de-France Region.
