Witness
September 10th, 2021 – November 6th, 2021
Piero Atchugarry Gallery is pleased to announce Witness, the gallery’s first group exhibition exclusively featuring five contemporary African and African Diaspora artists navigating the saturation of globalization from a postcolonial perspective. Serving as a crucial platform for visibility in Miami, the exhibition includes works by Ângela Ferreira (b.1958), Lungiswa Gqunta (b.1990), Daàpò Réo (b. 1971), Tariku Shiferaw (b.1983), and Chris Soal (b.1994). Guided by the curatorial expertise of Natasha Becker, the newly appointed inaugural Curator of African art at The Fine Art Museums of San Francisco, Piero Atchugarry Gallery unveils new and earlier works by these artists. The exhibition spans four generations, multiple disciplines and a profound understanding of the internationalism of contemporary African art.
