Introduction
阿贾布·伯纳德·阿特格瓦

“THROUGH MY WORK, I WANT TO CATALYZE THE STRONG NEED OF A CONVERSATION BETWEEN THE PUBLIC ACROSS THE WORLD AND THE CHARACTERS ON MY CANVASES. THIS IS A POSSIBILITY FOR PEOPLE WHO DON’T KNOW AFRICA OR CAMEROON TO HAVE AN OVERVIEW OF THE DAILY LIFE OF PEOPLE HERE, TO SHOW THEIR ASPIRATIONS, THEIR STRUGGLES, AND THEIR SUCCESSES.”

 

– AJARB BERNARD ATEGWA IN CONVERSATION W/ JACK RADLEY, BERLIN ART LINK 2018

阿贾布·伯纳德·阿特格瓦（1988年出生于喀麦隆昆巴）的作品探索他的祖国喀麦隆快速变化的城市景观。阿特格瓦的大型绘画仿照城市景观和公共空间的尺度，而他鲜艳的色彩使用和图形风格则是取自当地居民熟悉的广告语言，这种语言是杜阿拉 —— 喀麦隆最大城市和经济中心的常见元素。阿特格瓦的绘画基于帆布上繁复自由的徒手绘制的线条，其正暗示着他所处的城市中迅速变革的动态和势头。
