About This Piece

"Pilipili Mulongoy (1914-2007) A Pair Of Birds Protecting The Nest, Painting On Canvas" Painting on Canvas "A Pair of Birds Protecting the Nest". Celebrated artist Pilipili Mulongoy worked as a house painter before joining Pierre Romain-Desfossés ’s atelier, Le Hangar, in Lubumbashi, Congo, in 1947. The painting school was a hotbed of creativity for Congolese artists. In the 1950s, the atelier was folded into Kinshasa’s Académie des Beaux-Arts, where Mulongoy became a teacher. Mulongoy’s colorful, folkloric paintings depict African wildlife and people, often set against fantastical landscapes. In 2015–16, Mulongoy was featured in a survey of modern and contemporary Congolese art, “Beauté Congo 1926–2015 Congo Kitoko,” at the Fondation Cartier alongside artists like Moke , Chéri Samba , and Sammy Baloji . The artist died in 2007. 99 x 100.5 cm, painting 95 x 97 cm.
