Contemporary Artists from Eritrea
Imago Mundi – Luciano Benetton Collection

Texts by Luciano Benetton, Fitsum Amaha, Abdulmalik Mabellini

An extraordinary collection of works that express regeneration, urgency for action and a creativity that intertwines the African beauty of a country weakened by over thirty years of war with hope, the desire for change and participation. 141 canvasses to proclaim that being an artist in Eritrea today not only signifies the liberation of a subjugated people, but the liberation of all peoples of the planet, with the recognition of their equal and lasting dignity.

Eritrea / Freedom is an Art is an Imago Mundi collection, a cultural, democratic, global, non-profit project, promoted by Luciano Benetton with the aim of creating the widest possible mapping of the different contemporary artistic experiences of our world. In Imago Mundi, each country is represented by the works of established artists and new talents, commissioned with the maximum freedom of expression, whose only constraint is the 10x12cm format.
