Founded in 2005, AFRICAN|CONTEMPORARY is a specialist online art gallery based in Lisbon, Portugal, offering original modern and contemporary artworks by some of the leading African artists such as George Lilanga, Twins Seven-Seven, Chéri Samba, Malangatana, Owusu-Ankomah, Armand Boua or Aboudia, to name just a few.
These internationally renowned artists are amongst the most well known and respected of our time. Major names of the so-called Contemporary African Art, their work is represented in major contemporary art museums from the Centre George Pompidou in Paris to the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston (CAMH) or the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York. Their work is also featured in seminal private collections such as the Sindika Dokolo Collection, Jean Pigozzi's Contemporary African Art Collection (CAAC) or the Zeitz MOCAA Collection.
With over 20 years of experience in the international art market, we work with private collectors and institutions around the world. Several works that have passed through the gallery are now in private and institutional collections and also documented in international auction provenance records.
