Hamidi, the Journey of a Bold Introvert

Discreet yet daring, Mohamed Hamidi is on the cover of Diptyk #51, which retraces the path of this pioneer of Moroccan modern painting. This December 2019–January 2020 issue also tours Africa’s biennales: the Rencontres de Bamako, the Lubumbashi “miracle” and sculpture in Ouagadougou. It also features El Anatsui at Mathaf in Doha and meets the collector Sindika Dokolo. Reports, analyses and portfolios complete the issue.
