Book signing with Ibrahim Mahama on October 23, 2026.

7 p.m. – 8 p.m. at the Fondation Cartier Bookshop.


From October 22, 2026 to February 28, 2027, the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain will present The Harvest Season, an exhibition of Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama and nine invited artists and collectives: Dorothy Akpene Amenuke, Gideon Appah, James Barnor, the Cercle d’Art des Travailleurs de Plantation Congolaise, Courage Dzidula Kpodo & Postbox Ghana, Zohra Opoku, Tjaša Rener, and Feda Wardak. The publication accompanying the exhibition allows an in-depth exploration of Mahama’s collective and community-based practice and vision.

Numerous contributions by Mahama himself and the exhibition’s curators as well as a conversation with the artist, put into perspective his approach and that of the nine artists and collectives he invited to participate in the exhibition. An essay by Bernard Akoi-Jackson also traces the long history of the KNUST university in Kumasi, Ghana, providing an essential insight into the intellectual and institutional context in which these artistic practices have emerged.
