About the Item
Frédéric Bruly Bouabré
Un Enfant Vu Assis Sur
Ballpoint Pens, Crayons And Colored Pencil On Cardboard
7.5 x 5.5
March 11, 1948, he experienced a transcendental vision. The sky opened up; seven suns danced around a central star; and Bouabré was inspired to adopt a new name (Cheik Nadro, “the Revealer”) and devote his life to the expression of celestial knowledge. Most of Bouabré’s small drawings are ringed with captions in French, written with the Roman alphabet. (As seen at the Museum Of Modern Art)
From the 1980s onwards, as the scope of his interests grew, he embarked on an all-encompassing project, drawing from observation almost daily. He titled the open-ended series of drawings Connaissance du Monde, and worked on it until his death in 2014, systematically compiling and classifying forms, ideas, and a wide range of phenomena, including domestic objects, cloud formations, and tribal scarifications, as well as the political climate and world events. Synthesizing West African traditions and his global quest for knowledge, Bouabré envisioned his work as a vital form of didactic thought that reflected both personal and universal experiences.
