The Ease of Fiction presents the work of four African artists living in the United States as the foundation of a critical discussion about history, fact and fiction. The exhibiting artists, ruby onyinyechi amanze, Duhirwe Rushemeza, Sherin Guirguis, and Meleko Mokgosi, present recent paintings, drawings and sculptural works that explore issues of cultural identity, personal agency, and the very notion of "African art." Curated by Dexter Wimberly and on exhibition at CAM Raleigh in Raleigh, NC.
