Project a Black Planet: The Art and Culture of Panafrica is a major international exhibition exploring the cultural, political and artistic impact of Pan-Africanism — the idea of solidarity and shared identity among African and African diaspora communities — from the early 20th century to the present day. Curated in collaboration with the Art Institute of Chicago and MACBA (Barcelona), this exhibition presents over 300 works spanning painting, sculpture, installation, film, posters and archival material.
The show challenges conventional narratives about global art history by foregrounding voices from Africa, the Caribbean, Brazil, North America and Europe, featuring artists such as Chris Ofili, Marlene Dumas, Kerry James Marshall, Simone Leigh, Grace Ndiritu and Ingrid Pollard. Rather than presenting Pan-Africanism as a static or geographical concept, the exhibition frames it as a dynamic intellectual and cultural terrain where ideas of resistance, emancipation, collective imagination and transnational solidarity intersect. This makes it a powerful experience for audiences interested in art, cultural history, identity politics and the Black global experience.
