Wub Addis II: Painting a Vanishing City #Exhibition documents #AddisAbeba’s fading neighborhoods through watercolor and acrylic. An acrylic painting measuring 1.3 meters by 1.8 meters greets visitors at the entrance of the second gallery room inside the Taitu Culture and Education Center. The canvas assembles fragments of Addis Abeba’s disappearing #urbanmemory — market scenes, architectural details and #streetscapes that have either been demolished or erased by the city’s rapid transformation. The works form part of “Wub Addis 2 – Dej-af,” an exhibition featuring 48 paintings by the artist Harun Sulaiman.
