The Arts in Action Society is releasing a new documentary called: The Art of Viyé Diba "The Intelligent Hand" Please find below a synopsis of this 52mn film. For any question, please contact Claudine Pommier at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Viye Diba, a Senegalese artist living in Dakar, says himself that he is not an African artist, but a modern artist living in Africa. His work has evolved from small format paintings to 3 dimensional works to increasingly large metaphorical installations. His artistic discourse goes beyond a mere aesthetic expression. Whether it explores the mysteries of communication, or through the use of raw and recycled materials, raises environemental, social or political questions, his work explores the vital role of Art and cannot be ignored.
