Artistic explorations and critiques told by its lovers
In Kinshasa, Art Takes Shape in a World in Flux
The group exhibition Territories of the Living – Fragments of a World in Flux, curated by Édith Congane at the Centre Wallonie-Bruxelles in Kinshasa, explores ecological and environmental challenges through what emerges as a laboratory of visual resistance. Bringing together 60 works, the exhibition choreographs the practices of seven Congolese artists: Simplus Ntoto, Aïcha Muteba, Papy Tamba, Baba Tshikama, Savio Banza, Jérémie Kuminua and Patrick Kusakana. The exhibition runs until 13 September.
Otobong Nkanga, I dreamt of you in colours : ‘I think of the Earth as a being, like our body.’
This autumn, and until 22 February 2026, the Musée d’Art Moderne of Paris presents an exceptional monographic exhibition dedicated to Otobong Nkanga, whose work — situated at the intersection of science, ecology, and human experience — resonates with particular clarity in light of today’s global challenges. Through installations, drawings, and sculptures, the artist explores the invisible bonds that connect bodies, materials, and territories, inviting us to reconsider our relationship with the living world and with the Earth’s resources.
