When art and politics come together

Focus on Africa

Available for over a year

Art and politics have always been used together, and Benin-born artist Meschack Gaba is no different. He's been using his art to air his own political and social comments. In the past Gaba has used semi precious stones, flags and hair extensions as material for his elaborate art installations. His latest exhibition is no different. At the centre of it is the now defunct Zimbabwe dollar. The Âé¶¹Éç's Mo Allie visited the exhibition titled, Bank or Economy, in Cape Town
