"EAST AFRICA IN RENAISSANCE"
2000-09-01 until 2001-03-31
Fine Arts Center for East Africa
San Francisco, CA, USA United States of America

Paintings by Ugandan artists David Kibuuka, James Kitamirike, and Dan Sekanwagi explore personal visions and cultivate new cultural identities for East Africa's emerging artistic Renaissance. This exhibit marks the historic reunion (after 20 years) of three leading members of the Ugandan school of fine painting.

During the 1970s and early 1980s, Kibuuka, Kitamirike, and Sekanwagi were considered three of the most influential and accomplished fine painters whose art defined the internationally recognized art scene in Nairobi, Kenya. Since that time, all three artists have worked individually to spearhead the recognition of Uganda's contemporary arts movement; this historic reunion and exhibition embodies the vitality of East Africa's Cultural Renaissance.
