African Modernism

The exhibition in the Vitra Design Museum Gallery is one of the first presentations of this remarkable period of our more recent architectural history.

This exhibition was researched and curated by architect and author Manuel Herz, with a substantial contribution by photographer Iwan Baan. The exhibition documents more than 50 buildings in countries such as Kenya, Côte d’Ivoire, Zambia, Ghana and Senegal, which mirror the forward-looking spirit that was dominant in these countries at the time.
