After being overlooked for many decades, African Contemporary Art has taken the art world by storm over the past decade, both on an institutional level and in the art market. Global museums and biennales have been scrambling to exhibit and collect black artists from the continent and the African diaspora. Many of them now commend market prices in the many millions of dollars and in the last Venice Biennale all 5 prizes went to Black artists. Serge Tiroche has been actively collecting African Contemporary Art for over a decade. In 2017 he founded Africa First, a dedicated platform to discover, support and promote the most exciting artistic talents in the 54 countries that make up Africa. His collection of over 500 works by some 180 artists is one of the most visible and reputed collections globally. From 2016, he offered African artists one of the earliest specialized international
residencies.
In 2022, in light of the pandemic the program was expanded to include a dedicated exhibition space in collaboration with Gordon Gallery in Tel-Aviv. We are proud to bring the following 5 artists from the program to the attention of a much larger audience of collectors through this new collaboration with Tiroche auction house.

Estimated price: $5,000 - $7,000
