One Off Contemporary Art Gallery Ltd.
28 Rosslyn Lone Tree Estate Rd, Nairobi
Rustic garden gallery of East African contemporary art, roamed by dogs, a donkey, and free birds
This guide to One Off Contemporary Art Gallery in Nairobi opens with Carol Lees unlocking a single garden room in Rosslyn in 1994, a room still roamed today by free dogs, cats, a tortoise and a donkey among the sculptures. It follows what happened six years later, when she was pulled away to co-found and run the Rahimtulla Museum of Modern Art downtown, a Ford Foundation-backed project that staged five exhibitions a month, a children's wing and its own magazine at its peak. Visitors are warned to wear flat shoes for the uneven garden ground.
