Doyle Wham x 14 Cavendish

× Doyle Wham is delighted to collaborate with 14 Cavendish to present a group exhibition showcasing four exciting photographers from Nigeria, Kenya, Gabon and Côte d'Ivoire against a unique architectural backdrop. The exhibition runs from the 23rd of July to the 13th of August. Offering a rare insight into current photographic trends emerging from the African continent and its diaspora, new series by Aïcha Fall, Yannis Davy Guibinga, Morgan Otagburuagu and Shitanda will enjoy its worldwide debut with Doyle Wham x 14 Cavendish. This will mark the most extensive presentation of these artists to date, bringing together a total of fifty artworks. Each artist employs the use of photographic portraiture to subvert the traditional narratives that surround their home countries and continent, while simultaneously dissolving the outdated boundaries drawn between art, fashion and photography. The show strikingly marries the historic and the contemporary by pairing these colourful works with the architectural grandeur of 14 Cavendish, a 1770 Grade II listed mansion on the north side of Cavendish Square. Newly opened as a unique events space, each floor has been gutted and stripped to its core, revealing the rich patina of the building’s peeling walls.
