Art gallery residence featuring works of South African and Australian world renowned artist Loman Pawlitschek. Many of the artworks are created from 3-D multi dimensional designs. Temporary exhibitions include the work of local artists presenting urban pop art. Home furnishings and accessories are also on display.
Loman Art is a beautiful and inspiring art gallery where you'll get the chance to discover emerging artists from Senegal and the whole continent and sometimes even see them at work. Loman, the curator, is very kind and welcoming and loves sharing her knowledge about art and Africa. Definitely a must see!

Only on appointment. In a highly symbolic place and immersed in the effervescence of the Plateau, stands OH GALLERY. Its owner, Océane Harati, has made a unique site for contemporary art in the Senegalese capital. Opened in November 2018, it has already hosted numerous exhibitions, artists and various unique events on the territory. The address, long kept confidential, is revealed with an appointment, offering each visitor the opportunity to spend a special moment in the gallery, and a customized experience. In addition to contributing to the promotion of African contemporary art in Senegal, OH GALLERY works to the international distribution of its artists, allowing them access to fairs and cultural events outside West Africa. Much more than a gallery role, Océane Harati strives to extend her agent work with her artists, establishing stronger links with international galleries and partners.

This centuries-old house served as a processing center for African slaves.
We had a local fellow named Ali who was magnificent, taking us through and giving us information on each room and how the slaves would arrive and be treated throughout their time here. You don’t want to miss understanding the impact of this place in history. If you really want to understand the impact of the place, make sure you have a guided tour.

Set up in 1972, this gallery is a "MUST" while visiting Africa. It is dedicated to African tribal art. On 4305 Ft2 are displayed the late Marthe Everlé and Claude Everlé Collections dated from 1963 : wooden masks, figures,stools & beds from West & Central Africa, Benin & Dogon bronzes, Terracottas... We exhibit artists from the Dakar School of paintings and sell 18th Century glass beads' necklaces.
Don’t let the name put you off. Gallery Antenna was started 50 years by the current owner’s father who was a salesman for 3M throughout West Africa. He was self-trained and had an excellent eye . The collection is extensive, organized by country/tribe and each piece is documented with its provenance and history. Excellent prices too! Also have paintings but they are new.
