Attribution: @omarbastudio Omar Ba (Senegal, 1977-, currently practicing between Dakar and Geneva). First image is Pedigree Dog, 2012. In the context of Ba's recent show at the @baltimoremuseumofart called "political animals" the choice of feline and canine representation appears to be part of a broader project concerning the legacy of colonialism. Thanks to @marcelomlmendonca for the tip.
In July 2007, French President Nicolas Sarkozy gave an address in Dakar aimed at appeasing French-African postcolonial relations, in which he lamented that Africans had “not yet entered into history.”
In Political Animals, on view at the Baltimore Museum of Art, Senegalese artist Omar Ba seemingly sets this nonsensical record straight with compelling portraits and tableaux that denounce Western-imposed violence and uphold African pride.
