Who We Are

KomezArt represents contemporary artists working in Rwanda through carefully curated exhibitions and sales. Based in Kigali, we connect international collectors with exceptional local talent while supporting artists' professional development and market access. Our focus is contemporary work that demonstrates both technical excellence and cultural relevance.

Our Curatorial Approach

We practice selective curation rather than comprehensive representation. Each artist and artwork we feature meets high standards for artistic merit, cultural authenticity, and contemporary relevance. Our curation provides context that helps international collectors understand both the artistic quality and cultural significance of the work.

We bridge local artistic practice with international collecting standards, ensuring that Rwandan artists gain meaningful exposure while collectors access work of genuine substance and cultural depth.

What We Offer

  • For Collectors: Curated access to contemporary Rwandan art with full documentation, international shipping, and cultural context to support informed collecting decisions.
  • For Artists: Professional representation, international market access, career development support, and international market positioning
  • Services: Original artwork sales, print editions, commissioned works, and collector consultation services.

Our Foundation

KomezArt takes its name from "Komeza" - meaning to strengthen or continue in Kinyarwanda. Founded in 2020 during global disruptions affecting artists worldwide, we began as a response to the need for new pathways between exceptional Rwandan artists and international collectors.

Over five years, we have built relationships with both serious collectors and talented artists, establishing KomezArt as a trusted bridge between Rwanda's contemporary art scene and global collecting communities.
