Post African Futures
As facilitator of emergent forms, the Goodman Gallery works with curators and artists who question the current status of the art world, specifically problems that emerge from restrictive labels and one dimensional readings of the process of making of art in African contexts.
This year the Goodman Gallery has invited curator Tegan Bristow to curate the exhibition POST AFRICAN FUTURES around her cohesive research into technology based art in Africa. The works allow for a new engagement with practice that uses technology and explodes the myth of AfroFuturism in Africa. It is the belief of the Goodman Gallery that the barrier breaking, innovative works which have emerged as artists have responded to Bristow’s call for participation are a move away from staid ideas of art making in Africa. The Goodman Gallery is proud to present a show allowing for works which critique and question systems and structures that the commercial art industry has often relied upon.
