Galerie Cécile Fakhoury opened its doors in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, in September 2012. In 2018, she inaugurates a new space in Dakar, Senegal, and a showroom in Paris, France. From March 2020, it will develop Project Space in Abidjan, a space dedicated to forward-looking programming. In October 2021, Galerie Cécile Fakhoury opens a new exhibition space in the Matignon district and and is now based in a showroom, located in the 7th arrondissement, accessible by appointment.
The gallery promotes contemporary art from Africa and the Diaspora by providing visibility to the artistic diversity and creative spirit from the continent. Through its programming of solo and group exhibitions, participation in international art fairs, biennales, and collaboration with international galleries, Cecile Fakhoury is a leading force putting contemporary African art on the global map.
The artists represented by the gallery are distinguished by their cultural identities and stories, they create a new language that crosses geographical boundaries and familiarities. They are observers of the world they live in, critics of society, and committed to their positions living within complex histories. In turn, they ask us to reconsider our own relation to the world.
