About the lot N° 31
(Kinshasa 1955. Lives and works in Kinshasa, DRC) Attraction juvenile, 2020, 140X178 cm Today, Chéri is one of the best-known painters in Kinshasa and a teacher of many talented young artists. In the shadow of Moké and Chéri Samba for a long time, Chéri Chérin gained international attention through his participation in the Africa Remix exhibition in 2005. In 2015, his most emblematic pieces were presented in the exhibition "Beauté Congo-Congo Kitoko'' at the Fondation Cartier in Paris. His paintings are social and political chronicles full of messages and codes, never lacking a touch of humour. Considered today as the father of popular painting, Chéri continues to be inspired by African and international current events.
