Mwili, Akili Na Roho: Ten Figurative Painters from East Africa features the work of ten artists from Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania, including Sam Ntiro, Elimo Njau, Asaph Ng'ethe Macua, Jak Katarikawe, Theresa Musoke, Sane Wadu, Peter Mulindwa, Chelenge van Rampelberg, John Njenga, and Meek Gichugu. The personal histories, thematic concerns, and formal strategies of this multigenerational group of artists present an opportunity to engage more deeply in the genealogies of artistic creation in the region, while considering the enduring influence of certain ideas and institutions in the creation, dissemination, and reception of art in and from East Africa. This catalogue is published to coincide with an expanded version of Mwili, Akili Na Roho at the Nairobi Contemporary Art Institute in 2022, following earlier iterations at Haus Der Kunst in Munich (2020) and the Royal Academy of Arts in London (2021)." -- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Figurative painting $z Africa, East $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art, African $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Art, African $y 20th century. 700 1 $a Kyeyune, George, $e author. 700 1 $a Handa, Don, $e writer of foreword. 700 1 $a Macua, Asaph Ng'ethe, $e author. 710 2 $a Nairobi Contemporary Art Institute, $e host institution. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240305043546.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219013449.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=67ABA0B07A0E11EE96FE52224AECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
