Interview | Inside the Central African Art Scene

Before co-founding Bwo Art Gallery in 2023, Cameroonian natives, Brice Yonkeu and Noelle Mukete-Elhalaby had co-founded Bwo Art, an Atlanta-based advisory firm that specializes in dealing contemporary African art globally and in managing the careers of contemporary African artists from the diaspora. 

 

The co-founders of Bwo Gallery, Brice and Noelle, spoke with Omenai about the need to support artists on the continent, building a space to promote dialogues between Cameroon and the rest of the world, as well as their roles as advocates for Cameroon in the international art market scene through Bwo Art, the advisory firm, and the -ongoing- inaugural exhibition of Sesse Elangwe’s works.
