ThorupART - Tingatinga from Craft to Art

Tingatinga - from Craft to Art presents a modern African painting style that challenges the boundary between craft and art, and between 'airport art' and genuine talent. The exhibition showcases the cheeky, humorous, and colorful contemporary Tingatinga paintings that move between colorful kitsch and captivating art.

The Tingatinga exhibition in Portalen is a collaboration with the Art Association Køge Bugt. Private viewings are available on Saturday, March 2nd at 2 pm. The exhibition features paintings for sale as well as the book, Tingatinga: Kitsch or Quality. Bicycle enamel on board and canvas, which is also available for purchase from the online shop.

Der Boden ist vertrocknet und der Hunger zieht ins Land – doch da gibt es den Baum mit den wunderbaren Früchten. Aber wie kommen die Tiere bloß an die Früchte heran? Die großen Tiere denken, nur sie selbst können das herausfinden…

The Tinga Tinga painters are frequent visitors to Japan. Only this year more than 7 painters from TACS were present at various exhibitions in Japan. And today (30 October) Mr.Abdul Mkura headed again to airport - it will be his visit number 10 to Japan. Mr. Abdul Mkura has even published a "solo" book about his paintings in Japanese language so he is well known there. I called him when he was in taxi to airport to learn more about the exhbition. If I undrestood well then the director of Royal Park Hotel in Tokyo invited him, the exhibition will be at the hotel. This Tokyo hotel is in the Nihonbashi neighborhood, adjacent to the Tokyo City Air Terminal. Mr. Abdul Mkura will stay in Japan for one month. Good Luck Mr.Mkura!
