Los Angeles – UTA Artist Space is pleased to announce Dans Un Ciel Ensoleille, a group exhibition, opening on Saturday, July 15, 2017. The show will include the work of four African artists, Frédéric Bruly Bouabré, Paa Joe, Cameron Platter and Serge Attukwei Clottey, including drawings, sculpture and paintings.
These four artists challenge historically imposed societal values through repurposing traditional everyday materials from their heritage and transforming them into contemporary interpretations of a new world view. Their desire to create art is manifested through this transformation of mundane objects into intricate compositions that illustrate the artists’ cultural history and complexities of existence.
