Frédéric Bruly Bouabré’s Knowledge of the World

In the online edition of MoMA’s ArtSpeaks program, a member of our staff shares personal impressions of an artwork in the galleries. Here, curator Ugochukwu-Smooth Nzewi takes a close look at Frédéric Bruly Bouabré’s Connaissance du monde (Knowledge of the World) (1987–2008), a series of drawings focused on gathering a common human story, which is currently on view in the exhibition Frédéric Bruly Bouabré: World Unbound.
