Brussels, 13 May 2014

Joaquin Pecci presents the exhibition “Presence of the Sacred: Evoking the Ubangian”, running from 4 to 8 June 2014, in Brussels.

About thirty Northern Congo sculptures will be on display at the exhibition, taking place at the 14th edition of BRUNEAF.

Joaquin Pecci Gallery opened in 2007 and specialises in African art. The owner of the gallery first travelled across Asia, where he found interest in the shamanic cultures of the Himalayas. Further on, he discovered a passion for African art in 1986 and became specifically interested in the Congo, Mali and northern Nigeria.

Before opening his own gallery, Joaquin Pecci worked for over 10 years as head of African Art at the Grusenmeyer gallery.
