A work by Boris Nzebo is featured in the travelling group exhibition, When We See Us: A Century of Black Figuration in Painting, at Liljevalchs, Stockholm. The presentation includes over 155 works, on loan from institutions and private collectors from 26 different countries. Created by Black artists from around the world over the past century, the artworks are placed in dialogue with contemporary Black thinkers, writers and poets.
Originally conceived by the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa (Zeitz MOCA), When We See Us has been internationally recognised as one of the world’s most significant exhibitions focusing on Black representation and identity. With a primary focus on painting, the exhibition celebrates how artists from Africa and its diaspora have portrayed, positioned, preserved and highlighted the experiences of people of African descent.
