Solo Exhibition
28 November 2022–12 November 2023
Alexandre Diop: Jooba Jubba, l’Art du Defi, the Art of Challenge
Rubell Museum, Miami, USA
Based in Vienna, Franco-Senegalese artist Alexandre Diop uses discarded objects to create work that question sociopolitical, cultural and gender issues. The artist draws inspiration from his European and African roots, exploring legacies of colonialism and diaspora while tackling universal themes of ancestry, suffering, and historical violence.
The exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue featuring an essay by scholar Mara Niang and a conversation between Diop and Hans Ulrich Obrist, alongside a selection of colour photographs.
