Based in Accra, with a London outpost opened in 2020, Gallery 1957 has a curatorial focus on West African artists and art practices. Presenting a programme of exhibitions, installations, and performances by the region’s most significant artists, the gallery serves as a vital platform promoting West Africa’s presence within the art scene. The gallery hosts ambitious exhibitions, providing resources for residencies and participating in international art fairs. Founded by Marwan Zakhem in 2016, Gallery 1957 has evolved from over 15 years of private collecting. The gallery now hosts three spaces in Accra – one in the Kempinski Hotel and two in the Galleria Mall – and a London outpost in Hyde Park Gate.
