In Minor Keys by Koyo Kouoh
Following Kouoh’s passing in May 2025, La Biennale chose to realise the project as she conceived it. She had already defined the curatorial framework, artists, works, catalogue and exhibition design, working closely with her team – Gabe Beckhurst Feijoo, Marie Hélène Pereira, Rasha Salti, Siddhartha Mitter and Rory Tsapayi.
