Sudanese Vision
Once again the Nairobi National Museum hosts the exhibition Sudanese Vision. In 2013 Sudanese Vision highlighted artists Yassir Ali and Fawaz Elsaid. This year they are joined by Magdi Adam. This colorful new exhibition of paintings by the trio from Sudan tells a story of life; dialogue, history and identity.
