IMAGES OF AFRICA



(Images of Africa II by Hussein Salim)

Sudanese artist Hussein Salim’s exhibition, Images of Africa, opens at the Elizabeth Gordon Gallery this evening (July 24).

“Hussein’s new works are a combination of images reflecting all that is sacred to us on the continent of Africa,” says gallery owner, Joy Reynolds. “The images show a move away from his Sudanese influences towards an acceptance of his new environment which, while being supportive and embracing, is filled with fragility and vulnerability.”

Images of Africa runs until August 3 at the Elizabeth Gordon Gallery, 120 Florida Road. For further information phone 031 303 8133, fax 031 303 8136, email: joy@elizabethgordon.co.za or visit www.elizabethgordon.co.za
