ArtBakery
is a centre dedicated to the development of contemporary art and to the artistic
growth of young talented visual artists.We expect to reach this by providing
a space both physical and mental where dialogue and exchange are sought and
encouraged. The Portfolio Program (A.I.R) has provided the platform for local
and international artists to meet and share their experiences.

Justine
Gaga
Justine Gaga
is the artist who stayed longer at ArtBakery. She clearly was looking for
more than a residency program. She needed to carry out an indepth exploration
of the theme of loneliness with different means of expression. This culminated
in her first solo exhibition in March 2007 at Africrea Art Centre, Yaounde/
Cameroon.

Eza Komla
This talented
and ambitious Lome-based artist met the exit tour team when they were in Togo,
early 2006 http://exitour.netfirms.com
, and decided to come to Bonendale. His enthusiastic demand met the agreement
of ArtBakery and in October 2006, the Togolese artist could be in Douala for
a month stay at ArtBakery. Both parties expressed deep satisfaction at the
end of the residency and there are good prospects of further collaboration
in the nearest future.

stay revolved around a work based on family albums from Bonendale and dealing
with memory. He manipulated images drawn from various family albums, questioning
photos as memories.He has been the first artist to represent Cameroun in the
Basel-Douala exchange program.

Boris
Nzebo
This very young artist
is certainly going to be an important figure on the national art scene if
current efforts are sustained and if he receives appropriate support. ArtBakery
has chosen him as the young artist-in-residence 2008. His profound work on
hair styles in the urban landscape was pursued in better conditions in Bonendale.
He started exploring new paths during his stay...
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Guy Wouete
This is the local artist
who has been most successful of late. He has been selected to Dak'art 06,
has received a prize from Fondation Blachere, has been a Unesco laureate with
the Unesco-Aschberg bursary for artist (a stay in Colombia)... He was artist-in-residence
at ArtBakery as well. ArtBakery has very little to claim in this extraordinary
series of successes. The artist's sole strategies and approach to the art
world account for them.

Hervé
Youmbi
Hervé
is certainly one of the most talented and hard working artist on the local
art scene. He is used to the international art world as well. His stay at
ArtBakery shall be centered on media art related issues. ArtBakery is very
proud to have him as artist-in-residence.

of this residency prompted another one planned for the end of 2008. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
