Join acclaimed Congolese artist DouDou Mbemba for a free one-week summer adult art workshop. Ages 18+. Presented by the African American Arts Association.
For ages 18+. All skill levels welcome. Materials will be provided. Registration is required. Participants must attend all four sessions.
DouDou Mbemba lives and works in Kinshasa. His entire family has a natural talent for drawing, but he is the only one who made it a passion of life until being an artist became his career.is a tireless worker who has dedicated his life to his work as a painter. The canvas has become his second life in which he expresses his vision of world politics, his astonishment at the inequalities between men, his observation of a failing humanity, his anxieties for dying nature, his fight for human brotherhood to persevere and finally his steadfast hope for a better world.
