Romuald Hazoumè: Carnaval

6 Oct-26 Nov 2022
PV 11 Oct 2022, 6-8.30pm

October Gallery

London WC1N 3AL

Overview

Romuald Hazoumè’s 5th solo exhibition in London, Carnaval, is available to view from the 6th October and will coincide with 1-54 Contemporary African Art Fair and Frieze London.

In this exhibition of new and much-anticipated work, Hazoumè returns to his signature masques bidons (repurposed masks), in which the artist keenly observes international concerns and the figures that populate the world’s political stage. In this new series of ‘masks’ composed of miscellaneous found materials, Hazoumè’s keen eye for detail coupled with his droll sense of humour percolate through to reinvigorate the form again, expanding its range to encompass new interpretive possibilities.
