CHÉRI BENGA

VERSION MOBILE

Commerçant à la criée (2010)

CHÉRI BENGA

Oil on canvas
70 x 90 cm
Sold

It shows two characteristic features of Congolese popular art and Chéri Benga’s work in particular: the faithful depiction of snapshots of daily life and the borrowing of features from cartoons, with text bubbles adding to the reality of the scene.
