In Rabat, a Poetically Incorrect Biennale

Fifty issues and ten years in existence: Diptyk opens a new decade with the first Rabat Biennale, a “poetically incorrect” biennale. This October–November 2019 issue also visits Mous Lamrabat’s “Mousganistan”, on the cover, and Melehi’s waves at the MACAAL. It follows Hassan Hajjaj to Paris and asks which city will become the capital of contemporary African art. Reports, analyses, interviews and portfolios complete it.
