AKAA – ALSO KNOWN AS AFRICA | ART & DESIGN FAIR
11TH EDITION · PARIS 2026
BEYOND THE FAIR, THE CONNECTIONS REMAIN.
Art brings us together. Encounters move us forward.
As our participation in the 11th edition of AKAA – Also Known As Africa Art & Design Fair in Paris comes to a close, we reflect with deep gratitude and a renewed conviction that art remains one of the most powerful languages for connecting cultures, perspectives, and generations.
Our sincere thanks to AKAA and its entire team for creating an exceptional platform for artistic exchange, meaningful dialogue, and the international recognition of contemporary art from Africa and its diasporas.
To our represented artists, Médéric Turay and JOMAD, thank you for your trust, authenticity, and remarkable creativity, which continue to enrich and inspire our artistic vision.
To the collectors, art enthusiasts, and visitors, thank you for every meaningful conversation, every thoughtful encounter, and your genuine curiosity about the stories and ideas behind the artworks.
To the press, curators, fellow galleries, institutions, and art industry professionals, we extend our appreciation for your essential role in fostering dialogue, expanding visibility, and strengthening the international presence of these artistic expressions.
We leave Paris with fresh perspectives, valuable encounters, and connections that extend far beyond the days of the fair.
Because the true value of art does not end with contemplation. It lives on through the relationships, ideas, and emotions it inspires.
Merci Paris. Merci AKAA. À très bientôt.
