Afropolitan: Contemporary African Arts at NOMA

In March, the New Orleans Museum of Art unveiled its exhibition Afropolitan: Contemporary African Arts, which highlights works from its permanent collection by both established and emerging artists from the African continent. The exhibition, located in The Helis Foundation Gallery, features a diverse range of paintings, sculptures, and mixed-media pieces by artists such as Elias Sime, Theophilus Nii Anum Sowah, Seydou Keïta, Malik Sidibé, and Serge Attukwei Clottey. "Afropolitanism" conceptualizes a collective identity rooted in personal ties to Africa, cosmopolitan worldliness, and global perspectives. noma.org.
