Step into the vibrant world of Ablade Glover’s painting titled ‘People’, where colors dance and figures intertwine to create a captivating narrative of community and connection. Ablade Glover, a renowned Ghanaian artist, is celebrated for his ability to infuse his artwork with the essence of African life. In ‘People’, Glover transports us to a bustling marketplace or a lively village square, where individuals come together to interact, trade, and celebrate life. At first glance, the canvas explodes with a kaleidoscope of colors – vibrant reds, rich yellows, deep blues – each hue carefully chosen to evoke the warmth and energy of the scene. The brushstrokes are bold and dynamic, reflecting the rhythm of daily life in an African community. One of the most striking aspects of ‘People’ is Glover’s use of space. Despite the crowded composition, there is a sense of harmony and balance that permeates the scene. Every figure, every object, occupies its own unique place in the tableau, yet together they form a cohesive whole. #abladeglover #ghana #ghanaianartist #ghanaianart #africanart #

In response to demand from international collectors, Paa Joe began making what he calls “mini sculptures” — figurative works sculpted in the same way as his coffins, but at a diminutive scale. Many are on view in “Celestial City.” We love the charming proportions of this cigarette mini sculpture that seems to be one-third filter, one-third unburned cigarette, and one-third ash, set atop a box of Paa Joe branded matches.

Paa Joe “Celestial City” is extended through Saturday, May 11! “The highlights here, though, are two full-size coffins: a nearly 8-foot-tall bottle of Heinz ketchup and a charming yellow cab. The details of the Heinz bottle are impressive—no ingredient seems to be absent from the list on the back label—and the upright, sarcophagal object inspires both chills and laughs. The taxi, similarly, has windows that peer onto a steering wheel and shift knob, and the interior—surprisingly roomy when the lid is lifted—is lined with richly textured, block-wax-printed fabric. It’s an impressive mashup, not just of New York and West Africa but of life and death.“ — Brian P. Kelly for the Wall Street Journal. Photography by Brian W.

This artistic textile display spoke joy to me especially in this cooler weather of late! Here at the Barbican Centre overlooking the lake is the work of artist Ibrahim Mahama. Draped over the Barbican Centre are over 2000 sq. colossal panels sewn by the hands of craftspeople from Tamele. They too have hand embroidered more than 130 batakaris. They are African Fugu in local Ghanaian language, also known as Smocks. This colossal piece is wonderfully titled Purple Hibiscus. The installation is part of The Power and Politics of Textiles in Art here until May 26th #textiledesign #textileartistsofinstagram #textileart #africanart #african #fugu #barbicancentre #barbican #artinstallation #IbrahimMahama #ghanaianart #london #londonart

🇺🇸New York Here We Come! We are thrilled to announce our participation in the upcoming edition of @154artfair in New York City! Held annually across three continents, in the vibrant cities of London, New York, and Marrakech, 1-54 stands as a cornerstone event in the contemporary art scene. For the 10th edition of #154artfair New York, Galerie Revel will proudly present the works of three exceptional artists, making their debut at the fair. Among them is Kwaku Osei Owusu Achim, a talented Ghanaian painter and one of the newest additions to Galerie Revel’s roster of artists. Born in 1991, Kwaku Osei Owusu Achim is a visual artist based in Accra. His paintings embody the ethereal essence of a dream: figures, at times surrealistically double-headed, seem to float in a misty atmosphere, all interconnected by mind and body. Infused with a spiritual dimension, Achim’s paintings serve as repositories of reflections on sign language and the invisible ties that bind people together. Achim's work has recently been featured in several exhibitions in the UK, Ghana, and France and has enriched numerous private collections. In 2021, he was a visiting fellow at the Noldor Residency in Accra.

El Anatsui (Ghanaian, born 1944), “The Deluge”, aluminum, copper wire, and nylon string, 202I. Collection @artinstitutechi “The Deluge” presents a version of the Biblical flood. Near the top of the work, abstract shapes resembling clouds shoot down lines of rain. Inspired in part by the graphic woven patterns of African cloths, El Anatsui uses recycled cans and other found aluminum to weave sculptural tapestries. The repurposed objects bear traces of their initial use; as the artist has explained, they comprise “media which come with history, meaning, with something [that ] means something to me. Not just oil paint from a tube. I can’t relate to that well. I would rather go for something people have used. Then there is a link between me and the other people who have touched that piece.” (Text @artinstitutechi ) #elanatsui #ghanaianart #adinkra #sankofa #artinstituteofchicago #tapestry #bottlecaps #repurposedmaterials #foundobjects #beateechols

I recently interviewed artist Ibrahim Mahama at the unveiling of his awesome textiled work Purple Hibiscus, which is draped over the @barbicancentre facade. In the photo he is standing in front of the work at the Barbican's Lakeside Terrace. In 2021, he was one of the artists shortlisted to commission work for Trafalgar Square’s Fourth Plinth. When I caught up with him again in April 2024 the Barbican's iconic Brutalist architecture was his new plinth.
