Damien Hirst with the Art of Kota: A Divine Dialogue

From 2^nd March we will be showing Damien Hirst foil cuts together with Kota figures (devotional sculpture from the Gabon). Jean-Baptiste Bacquart (author of The Tribal Arts of Africa) will curate the sculptures.

The exhibition brings together historically potent, religious symbols from Africa and Europe. The reliquary figures from the Kota tribe are exhibited with Damien Hirst’s series “The Dead” in order to emphasise the visual similarities as well as explore the changing cultural parallels.

Dr Jonathan Pratt brings together over 25 years of commercial and academic experience to provide advice aimed at maximising the potential of the current situation in the art market.
