Michel Ekeba News Today

New commercial galleries, artist-led biennials, and patrons aim to give the Democratic Republic of Congo a new image through art.

Three African artists: Michel Ekeba, Jean David Nkot and Géraldine Tobé, have produced a work of art through the African Space Art Project.

Plus, an Yves Klein work that may fetch $18 million heads to auction, and the Museum of the American Revolution gets a $50 million donation.

Growing market interest in artists from the DRC and infrastructural development in the arts means the scene could be poised to take off.
