 AfriKin Art 2022 sketches a possible world that opposes the barbarism of our current order to open possibilities for rebirth. Rebirth is here seen in the Osirian myth of dismembering and remembering, a painful reminder of our human vulnerability to division, fragmentation and degeneration, and at the same time a symbol of our equally human capacity for unity, cooperative action and creative regeneration.

Distinguished evenings for welcoming our invited collectors and guests for an experience fusing the arts and the Moorish architectural ambiance of Opa-locka that rearticulate the sophistication of what it means to be independent.The depth and breadth of the exhibited artworks, the elegance of attendees and the irresistible performances will recenter the aesthetics of beauty in Black culture. The Lectures launch conversations about issues in politics and aesthetics and their resonance in the contemporary era.

Never mistake the map for the territory. –– A people’s art is the genesis of their freedom.
