  the opening on Saturday\, April 5 at 3 PM at OpenArtExchange\, Hoogstraat

 etween dreams & reality The OpenArtExchange 2024/2025 program highlights A
 frica's artistic diversity through locational exhibitions. Angola\, the fo
 urth stop\, has a rich yet turbulent history of colonization\, war\, and r
 esilience. Once a center of the transatlantic slave trade\, Angola fought 
 for independence and endured civil war\, authoritarian rule\, and corrupti
 on. Despite vast natural wealth\, economic struggles persist due to oil de
 pendency and debt. Though underfunded\, the arts sector is gaining recogni
 tion. With limited formal education but strong private initiatives\, Angol
 an artists foster an independent\, experimental scene\, redefining heritag
 e and decolonizing cultural identity. Within the Angolan contemporary art 
 scene\, surrealism is one of the dominant styles in which ancient ethnic s
 ymbolism goes hand in hand with modern city life observations and a free e
 xperimentation with a variety of other styles\, techniques and materials. 
 For the exhibition “Angola – between dreams and reality” we have sel
 ected three surrealist painters from different generations\, drawing their
  inspiration from daily life and ethnic roots\, each with their own unique
  style: Casca (1976)\, Sapate Doudou (1982) and Josélyna Pemba (1990). Ca
 sca Casca (1976) creates surrealist figurative-abstract masks and Angolan 
 street-life role models in acrylic on canvas\, drawing clear influence fro
 m Picasso. His work blends cubist elements with [...]
