We are delighted to offer places on the VIP curator-led tour programme of a major new international exhibition We Face Forward: Art From West Africa Today in Manchester over the opening weekend.
The exhibition takes place across Manchester Art Gallery, Platt Hall (Gallery of Costume), the Whitworth Art Gallery and Park. It features painting, drawing, photography, textiles, sculpture, video and sound work from a wide range of practitioners whose work is internationally acclaimed, but rarely seen in the UK.
The weekend programme includes talks and tours by artists including Romuald Hazoume, and introductions to major new installations by Pascale Marthine Tayou and Barthelemy Toguo.
