Gallery 1957

Accra, Ghana

FAIR BOOTH

Gallery 1957 is a contemporary art gallery with locations in Accra, Ghana, and London, UK. Its programme is dedicated to spearheading international exchanges between artists in these two cities and the rest of the world, presenting artists who interrogate concepts of belonging and identity, cultural exchange and social history beyond Western narratives. Launched in 2016 by Marwan Zakhem on Ghana’s Independence Day, Gallery 1957 has since expanded across three gallery spaces in Accra. Originally set up to promote Ghana and West Africa’s presence in the arts scene, it now encompasses the Global South and the African diaspora in its coverage.
