The Dak’Art Biennale, established in 1989, is a major cultural event in Africa focusing on contemporary art. Initially alternating between literature and art, it shifted exclusively to visual arts, design, and later, digital media. Supported by the Senegalese government and local artists, Dak’Art highlights African creativity, combats stereotypes, and fosters global partnerships. Key transformations include the addition of an artistic director, expanded international engagement, and evolving formats. It showcases innovative African talent, promotes new artistic models, and serves as a platform for dialogue on contemporary art, making it a significant cultural initiative for Africa and the global art community.
