Clear evidence that Nairobi has become a regional hub, not just for economic activities, but also for cultural and artistic events, is being seen this month at two of the newer art institutions in town.
Both Gravitart and the Nairobi Contemporary Art Institute (NCAI) are hosting works by artists from Egypt and Sudan respectively. There is ‘Mirrors of Existence’ by Mostafa Sleem from Cairo, and El Tayeb Dawelbait’s 'Untitled Archive' from Khartoum.
