Addis Fine Art has announced that Merikokeb Berhanu has been invited to the 59th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia which is great news for art lovers.

Curated by Cecilia Alemani, Berhanu will be Addis Fine Art’s first artist to ever be exhibited in the Biennale’s main pavilion.

The past year has seen Berhanu exhibit a sold out booth at Frieze London 2021 with Addis Fine Art, as well as garnering significant attention from acclaimed curators and institutions, including a recent acquisition by Instituto Inhotim Collection, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Berhanu has also exhibited with Addis Fine Art in The Armory Show (2020) and 1-54 Contemporary Art Fair (2019). She has also presented solo exhibitions in London, Addis Ababa, and Nairobi.
