Building Africa Exhibition
Exhibition
January - March 2023
London, United Kingdom
Curators: Kuukuwa Manful, Julia Gallagher
"Building Africa" showcased compelling stories about political institutions and identities across the continent, using architectural landmarks such as presidential palaces, courts, parliaments, schools, sports stadiums, airports, and the African Union building. The exhibition underscored how these structures play a pivotal role in shaping political landscapes. Architectural design teams from Ethiopia (Nahom Teklu), South Africa (Matri-Archi(tecture)), and Ghana (Lois Quartey & Augustine Owusu Ansah) crafted installations that initially debuted in Addis Ababa, Johannesburg, and Accra. The London exhibition was designed by Kuukuwa Manful.
