See you tomorrow!

C'était un plaisir de recevoir The AfricaMuseum l'artiste Géraldine Tobe, qui contribue avec ses œuvres profondes & spirituelles au succès de l'exposition Re-Thinking collections. Penser notre passé implique aussi de questionner l'avenir avec des artistes africains contemporains.
