Giovanni Carmine on Koyo Kouoh

The motto "what can culture do?" resides at the very base of the practice of Koyo Kouoh , independent curator and internationally active cultural producer. Reconstructing her story from the foundation of Raw Material Company in Dakar, a center for art knowledge and society, curator and director of the Kunst Halle Sankt Gallen Giovanni Carmine draws a portrait of the head curator and current director of the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa in Cape Town, laureate of the Prix Meret Oppenheim 2020.
