Hervé Yamguen Presents 'Nos géographies intimes' at Galerie Afikaris in Paris
Galerie Afikaris in Paris is hosting the second solo exhibition of Cameroonian artist Hervé Yamguen, titled 'Nos géographies intimes'. The show, on view until October 31, 2026, features a collection of drawings, paintings, bronze sculptures, and wooden masks that explore how we inhabit the world. Yamguen, a self-taught artist, has developed an eclectic practice spanning writing, visual arts, performance, and theatrical scenography. His work aims to transcend everyday life and tangible reality, venturing into broader spheres of existence. The exhibition was discussed on RFI's program 'Sur le pont des arts', where Yamguen was interviewed by Nathalie Amar. In the same episode, Jessica Taieb presented the Brazilian telenovela 'Révèle-toi !', which has been airing on Globo and Novelas+ since August 28, 2026, and follows Leona, a young woman rebuilding her life after a personal tragedy by becoming a nanny for a wealthy family. Fanny Imbert also guided listeners through the exhibition 'Avant que tout ne disparaisse. Faire l'inventaire du quotidien' at Galerie Person Paris. The episode's playlist included tracks by Esele Mulema Moam and Mao Sidibé.
