Interview with Koyo Kouoh of Zeitz MOCAA

February 23, 2024

Three iPhone portraits of Koyo Kouoh, director of the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary African Art in Cape Town, “Africa’s answer to the Tate Modern”.

“In the 1990s, I belonged to a generation of curators who wanted to tell stories through group exhibitions. But in these exhibitions, transgenerational connections between artists and movements were often not emphasized.

While it is so necessary to show that we have had so many important African artists for such a long time. They also influence and inspire new generations. As a Pan-African museum it is important to keep this in mind.”
