Shout Plenty - Championing artists as storytellers.
Episode 12
Wednesday, 28 September, 2022

Hi all, we are back with a new episode of Eziokwu, Speaking Truths. In this episode we speak with two artists from the current AAF exhibition Shout Plenty. Chisom Ikeorah “Chi-Fada" (NG) and Audrey d’Erneville (SEN) talk us through their methodology and inquiry taps into personal and global narratives. The exhibition “Shout Plenty” features 31 contemporary artists across Africa exploring the role of art as a powerful and revolutionary instrument to reconstruct the dominating institutions. The title “Shout Plenty” is coined from Fela Kuti’s 1986 LP “I Go Shout Plenty” through which he laid bare the ambitions and need for liberation of his generation.
