Adeusi Mandu Mmatambwe

Tanzanian 1914-1984 

A relative of E.S. Tingatinga’s wife, Adeusi Mandu Mmatambwe moved to Dar es Salaam in around 1971 along with Simon Mpata, Abdallah Ajaba and Tedo Kasper Henrick, where they were tutored by E.S. Tingatinga.

The current lot by Adeusi demonstrates how the students of Tingatinga developed the style, introducing new motifs such as mashetani (spirits and devils).

After the death of E.S. Tingatinga, Adeusi trained several artists who became the second generation of Tingatinga painters.
