Inaugurated in March 1999, Soleil d’Afrique was initiated by a group of Malian artists. It was created to offer young Malian artists a framework that stimulates the autonomy of ideas in the visual arts in Mali. In addition it facilitates exchanges on the one hand between Malian artists and on the other hand with artists from the sub-region (West Africa), and from other countries in Africa, Asia, Europe , America and elsewhere.
Closed since 2012.
