I wish there would more contemporary African art exhibitions in New York City. I wish one of them soon will feature Ouattara (pronounced wah-TARA) Watts. The two previous NYC-based exhibitions featuring Ouattara were: “Ouattara Watts: For Lily” (in 2007) and “Ouattara Watts: Works on Paper” (2005) both at Mike Weiss Gallery located on 24th St.

And it is not about snow: Africans from parts of Morocco, Tunisia, Lesotho, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Ethiopia and South Africa might be well familiar with it.
