Timothy Brooke 2020 Exhibition Invitation

About the exhibition

Under 30 offers an unusual opportunity for audiences and collectors to view some very early works by some of the best known artists practicing in Kenya today.

These include Anthony Okello, Thom Ogonga, Dennis Muraguri, Richard Kimathi, Beatrice Wanjiku, Simon Muriithi, Elias Mung'ora and Peter Ngugi. 

Newer to the Gallery are some very gifted young artists, all under the age of 30, who are showing some excellent technical skills including Zephaniah Lukamba, Isaac Karuga, Taabu Munyoki, Katie Simpson, James Kamande, Andrew Crae, Mika Obanda, Ian Wambui, Atieno Sachy, Derrick Kinyeki, Allan Simba, Warren Osongo, Osiemo Sam, Anthony Okari, Ian Ndambuki, Nadia Wamuyu, Iona McCreath, Rasto Cyprian, Laban Korir, Arytian Tim Ariemba, Brian Wallace, and Martin Musyoka.

​The exhibition inevitably invites comparisons between those who have made it big and their practice at the same age as the artists just starting to make their voices heard.
