☆ Exploring Ghana, With Contemporary Art as a Guide
  + stars: | 2024-02-05 | by ( Grace Linden | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
In late 2022, I was invited to go to Ghana with a friend researching work by the Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama, who first made a splash at the 56th Venice Biennale in 2015. We were going to Ghana to learn about the context of his work and also to understand the emerging contemporary art scene in the country. Over the past few decades, the art world has opened up beyond Europe and North America to create a more globalized market. In recent years artists like Mr. Mahama, and the fellow Ghanaians El Anatsui and Amoako Boafo have risen to prominence. We wanted to learn how that attention had affected contemporary art in Ghana.

Mariane Ibrahim at the new Mexico City outpost of her namesake gallery. “I love that we’re in this massive metropolis of a city that’s close to the U.S. yet it has an ancient culture and it’s so refined,” she says. Dealer Mariane Ibrahim, one of the art world’s rising tastemakers, has an uncanny ability to sense where the global art scene will pivot next. Over the past decade, Ibrahim has championed artists primarily from Africa and its diaspora in her eponymous galleries, first in Seattle and now in Chicago and Paris. In each locale, Ibrahim has stoked and leveraged the curiosity of local curators and collectors to propel her artists onto the international art stage—particularly Ghana’s Amoako Boafo, whose finger-painted portraits in bright hues have sold for as much as $3.4 million at auction.
