Benin, the cradle of the African Vodoun religion, has a deep spiritual tradition and a history marked by powerful kingdoms, heroic warriors, and national pride. At the same time, the country bears the scars of a turbulent past, including the transatlantic slave trade. This complex heritage continues to resonate in society.


"Benin Now" presents the work of five artists who reflect this layered history and spiritual legacy in their creations: Tchif Tchiakpe, Sanda Amadou, Marcel Kpoho, Sébastien Boko, and Elise Tokoudagba.
