DR Congo / DATE IDEA

An artist duo on paper.

View work by two contemporary Congolese artists online and tell each other what stands out about the materials, colours and subject matter.

01 / DR CONGO

Go at your own pace.

DR Congo offers rich inspiration for a date with music, a shared dish, contemporary art or a quiet evening at home.

02 / HOW TO DO IT

View work by two contemporary Congolese artists online and tell each other what stands out about the materials, colours and subject matter.
Use a museum or artist source that includes names.
Avoid reducing the work to a single story about the country.

No collection? Choose a documented interview with a maker.

01 / DR Congo

Choose three recordings of Congolese rumba from different years and listen to how the vocals and guitar change. Say which song you'd like to save.

02 / DR Congo

Find a recipe for pondu and make an adapted version at home using safely sourced leafy greens. Serve it with a side dish.

03 / DR Congo

Choose a locally recommended, accessible square for a short daylight break, and each describe three sounds without taking photos.
