Accra Cultural Week shines a light on Ghana's burgeoning art scene
Briefly

"It's no longer the fact that Ghana is an emerging talent. It has arrived... I think if you ask anyone in the international art world, they will say that definitely Ghana is one of the key players."
"In October, the Ghanaian artist-and current art world darling-Amoako Boafo's first museum exhibition in Europe opened at The Belvedere in Vienna... other Ghanaian artists have also had solo shows at notable international locations this year."
"As part of the event, they were immersed in the country's art scene, taking guided tours of artist studios, galleries, cultural sites and institutions, in Accra, Cape Coast and Tamale in the north."
"These visits generate an extraordinary amount of attention on the country, leading to the work of artists being documented, exposed and collected. This growing awareness and interest has led to a sustainable growth in the art sector."
