Paul Onditi is not waiting around this time for the government to decide if it will support a Kenyan art Pavilion at this year’s Venice Biennale.
“I’ve already been in one [Kenyan pavilion in Venice] and I don’t need to do that again,” the artist told BDLife last Friday. Instead, he will be exhibiting in Venice at the European Cultural Space. In the meantime, he is having a solo exhibition of nearly 20 of his most recent paintings at the Tribal Gallery in Nairobi.
