Swissitude remix! Franck Kemkeng Noah, born in Yaoundé, Cameroon in 1992, draws his inspiration from the fusion of cultures and the creation of what he calls “memory palaces”. Inspired by Oswald de Andrade’s “Manifesto of the Anthropophagus” published in 1928, he understands the fusion between his traditional Bamileke origins and other cultures as the creation of a new self. For the artist, culture is the very possibility of creating, renewing and sharing values. For Summer Flings, he has imagined three Swiss landmarks transformed through Bamileke performance, as this one in front of the Swiss Federal Palace. His work has been selected by the Musée du Quai Branly in Paris for a group exhibition in April 2022. His art has recently been featured in several exhibitions including at Didier Claes in Brussels, Belgium and at the Fondation Blachère in France. He also participated in 1-54 Contemporary African Art Fair Marrakech in 2020.
