H Gallery presents "Harare Beyond Words: Emerging Art from Zimbabwe", a groundbreaking show of contemporary art from Zimbabwe's capital city, Harare.
In the shadows beyond the international headlines about politics in Zimbabwe, art and culture continue to thrive. Harare's young artists are enmeshed in the life and toil of their city. They share the realities of their compatriots and _ amid urban frictions, the struggle for daily bread and to keep families together _ these artists create music, colour and poetry.
