Gallery Talk: Romuald Hazoumè in Conversation with Gerard Houghton

15 Oct 2022 3-4.30pm

October Gallery

London WC1N 3AL

Overview

In this new exhibition of much-anticipated work, Hazoumè returns to his signature masques bidons (repurposed masks), in which he keenly reflects on continental concerns, the figures who dominate the African political stage and issues relating to the broader international theatre. This artist’s talk will offer direct insights from the artist himself as he unpacks the charged concepts present in these new works and discusses his distinctive creative process.
