The exhibition will see the work from different artists, as well as their view on pre- and post-independent Namibia, the future of Namibian art and the nation at large, the artists’ role in society, and a reflection on the past 30 years.
The NAGN announced they received a total of 148 submissions, of which 26 artworks will be exhibited at the Museum of African Art (MAA), while 89 of them will be showcased at the NAGN from 5 March until 3 April 2020.
