Pascale Marthine Tayou presents "Bossa Bossa," his inaugural exhibition at the Javier López & Fer Francés Gallery in collaboration with Galleria Continua.
The title, meaning "victory, victory" in Spanish, celebrates the triumph of African migrants crossing into Europe. The immersive installation showcases Tayou's recent works, reflecting his observations of diverse lifestyles, complex human relationships, environmental concerns, cultural disparities between Africa and Europe, migratory patterns, and the integration of opposites.
