193 Gallery presents a trio show, ‘We Are Who We Are’, at miart 2024, a Milan’s premier international art fair, which showcases Italy’s diverse art masterpieces, from early 20th-century icons to contemporary artists, on display until April 14th.
Miart 2024, inspired by Franco Battiato, aims to expand the fair’s scope with the “No Time No Space” theme, introducing a new section called Portal and partnerships to integrate art into Milan’s cultural landscape.
‘We Are Who We Are’ is a collaborative exhibition featuring three artists who explore existence and identity through dynamic colors, shapes, and an engaging palette.
Thandiwe Muriu’s CAMO series portrays Kenyan women’s pride and resilience, addressing themes like identity and self-awareness. Muriu’s work is celebrated in prestigious collections worldwide, including the Fondation Gandur in Switzerland, the UHODA collection in Belgium, and the Contemporary African Art collection by Pigozzi. Her work has been featured in major art fairs and selected for the upcoming La Biennale de Arte Venice 2024.
Sesse Elangwe Ngeseli’s solo exhibition, “The Defiant Ones,” explores themes of self-improvement and empowerment within Black communities. His work is featured in prestigious collections and is a highlight at art fairs like Art Basel and Frieze London.
Rob Tucker’s unique approach to figurative still lifes and landscapes, reminiscent of mid-century modern design and pop art and abstraction movements, is celebrated.
These artists offer a moment of reflection, urging us to embrace the continuity between past and present, while also ensuring its transmission across generations.
193 Gallery, established in 2018, combines art, travel, and discovery, displaying contemporary art from diverse cultures and countries, avoiding clichés, and showcasing promising artists.
