Gallery MOMO Cape Town. A Continent Beyond

Gallery MOMO Cape Town is proud to present A Continent Beyond, an ambitious and expansive group exhibition featuring nineteen artists who have helped to define and redefine contemporary art within and beyond our borders.
 
Today, the African continent stands at a particular moment to define not just itself, but history, art and space all together. This is a moment beyond republics and invisible borders drafted by men who exist now as mere ghosts of the past - this is a continent beyond.

The exhibition brings artists who have defined and immortalised fleeting moments in a violent and oppressive past, together with those who began their careers reflecting on the complexities and failings of post-1994 Rainbowism, and the artists who are envisioning and shaping striking new models for the future. Arresting, engaged and continental in scope, the exhibition offers nineteen different entry points into the expansive possibilities of what it means to be A Continent Beyond.
