Royal Museum for Central Africa – Belgium

Mabele Eleki Lola !
The earth, brighter than paradise

The temporary exhibition reopens on Tuesday 1 December 2020 and will last until 15 August 2021.
For the first temporary exhibition, since it reopened in December 2018, Africa Museum invites Kinshasa artist Freddy Tsimba to enter a dialogue with the museum’s collections. The exhibit is curated by writer In  Koli Jean Bofane, with the scientific contribution of Henry Bundjoko, director of the Musée national de la République démocratique du Congo – Kinshasa. The title of the exhibit, ‘Mabele eleki lola ! The earth, brighter than paradise’, expresses the urgency of living in the here and now, and to the resilience demonstrated by Congolese people day after day.
