After the opening of the exhibition “Precarious Imaging: Visibility and Media Surrounding African Queerness” that is part of the independent program of Dak’art 2014, the 11th Biennial of Contemporary African Art (9 May – 8 June) and co-organized by Koyo Kouoh and the independent curator Ato Malinda, the contemporary art center was vandalized on May 13. On May 31st Raw Material Company was forced to interrupt the exhibition due to continuous pressure and acts of violence from the religious community...please consider signing the petition to support this brave photography exhibition and to compel Dr. Abdoul Aziz MBAYE Minister of Culture of Senegal to act proactively and to protect artistic freedom of expression and critical dialogue deeply needed for the experiences of the gay community.
