Abstract

Born in 1956, Cheri Samba lives and works in Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. After leaving school in 1972, he earned his living painting advertising billboards, and at the same time created comic strips for his publication Bilenge Info.&#13;&#13;&#13;In 1975, he began to put his comic strips onto canvas, thus inaugurating African painting with word bubbles. His work illustrates social life: customs, sexuality, AIDS, social inequalities, corruption. Along with the painter Moke, he is one of the principal founders of the movement in painting known as "Popular Zairean," His acrylic paintings, imbued with political awareness, are always representational, realistic, and colorful.&#13;&#13;&#13;"My painting focuses on people's lives. I'm not interested in myths or beliefs. I appeal to people's consciences. Artists must make people think."From the 1980s on, he himself became the main subject of his paintings, "so that people would nut only know my name, but also my face."

Abstract

The Democratic Republic of the Congo is world famous today for its vibrant art scene. Its multifaceted, creative, and current art production is unlike any other on the african continent. But the country already brought forth striking masks, sculptures, and pieces of design in times past. Published to coincide with the exhibition at Museum Rietberg, "Congo as fiction" presents objects, photographs, and documents - some never published before - from the archive of german art ethnologist Hans Himmelheber, who traveled the Congo in 1938/39. The artworks and images bear witness to the extraordinary creative force of the period. "Congo as fiction" avoids a biased eurocentric view by having contemporary congolese artists engage directly with Hans Himmelheber's archive. Their critical contributions address the effects of colonialization, global trade, and the art market on the country, and combine the past and present of the congolese art world in an entirely new way.
