Cheri Cherin: Figure of the Congolese popular art movement honoured in Paris

In Paris, a powerful tribute celebrates one of the most influential figures in Congolese painting. Chéri Chérin, who passed away just a few months ago, leaves behind a vibrant and socially engaged body of work. A voice of the people and a keen observer of his time, he played a key role in bringing Congolese popular art to an international audience. FRANCE 24’s Awa Diouf and Anaïs Chesnel report.
