Re-Mixing African Photography: Kelani Abass, Mallory Lowe Mpoka and Abraham Oghobase

Friday, July 7, 7-8:30 pm
Level 2, Gallery 249

Join us to celebrate the opening of the new exhibition Re-Mixing African Photography: Kelani Abass, Mallory Lowe Mpoka and Abraham Oghobase.

By exploring photographic histories in West and Central Africa—specifically studio portraiture—three contemporary African artists reimagine these traditions through a range of introspective, experimental, and critical approaches. Re-Mixing African Photography: Kelani Abass, Mallory Lowe Mpoka and Abraham Oghobase highlights these engagements with the photographic archive, and showcases new and recent works, featuring family photographs, archival material, and mixed media objects. 

Artists Mallory Lowe Mpoka and Abraham Oghobase will be in attendance. Remarks at 7pm
