The “avant-garde” show that repeats itself in Angola.
12 Artists occupied the rooms of the Hotel Globo, downtown Luanda, and showed everything the imagination suggests.
With six artists to participate for the first time, in this edition the group was composed by Toy Boy, Lubazandyo Pemba Bula, Joana Taya, Nelo Teixeira, Verkron Collective, Maria-Gracia Latedjou, Ery Claver, Daniela Vieitas, Indira Grandê, Kiluanji Kia Henda, Mussunda N’Zombo (AKA Miguel Prince) and Thó Simões.
“Fuckin’ Globo”, characterized by its escape from the conventional, was again carried out with the same voluntary spirit by the artists who financed the initiative. This way, they guaranteed total independence in relation to the institutions or sponsorships, allowing them an autonomous approach on cultural, social and political themes, risking presenting new aesthetic and conceptual meanings.
Since the first edition of “Fuckin’ Globo”, in December 2015, countless Angolan artists have already participate and are now “calling the shots” in the national and international cultural scene. Among them are names like Kiluanji Kia Henda, Edson Chagas, João Ana, Elepê, Orlando Sérgio, Marcos Kabenda, Keyezua, André Cunha, Angel Ihosvanny, Thó Simões, Ery Claver, Irina Vasconcelos, Muamby Wassaky, Alekssandre Fortunato, Daniela Vieitas, Toy Boy, Verkron Collective, Gretel Marin, Kalaf Epalanga and António Ole.
Three years after the beginning of this fusion of art without taboos, thousands of visitors have passed, from the curious, to diplomats, to representatives of the great art centres of the world, who made a point of knowing in depth the artistic projects developed in that unusual space.
A temporary show that happens every year in the land of the sable antelope” and that we strongly recommend.
