Richard Kimathi

Kenyan 1971- 

Richard Kimathi’s inventive and thought-provoking practice has established him as one of the region’s most respected contemporary painters. He is at the forefront of Kenya’s second generation of post-Independence artists, many of whom emerged from Kuona Trust Centre for Visual Arts in the mid to late nineties.

Kimathi has exhibited widely, with solo exhibitions at One Off Gallery, Nairobi, the USA and Spain. In 2014, he showed in London at GAFRA, Cork Street. He was selected to represent Kenya in the Dak’Art Biennale in 2006, has attended residencies in the USA and Pakistan and is represented in some major art collections locally and internationally.
