I was lucky enough to get an invite to attend Aabru Art’s official launch of Transcending Boundaries 2014. A VIP Champagne Reception (I laid off the alcohol – long story), dynamic display of art for sale, distinguished guests and a afrocentric live DJ set the bar high for the standard of African art events in London…
“The response to Transcending Boundaries 2013 was fantastic and we are very pleased to be returning with another collection of outstanding artists from West Africa. These artists highlight the diversity and quality of work from the region with a host of evocative and engaging works.”
