Greetings Anne,
Thanks for the article, I found out about ZOMA in 2010 on the internet and was son intrique by it and the house that was built for it…. I am going to ET again this year and have a meeting with Meskereem the founder which I am so excited about. I am hopeful the ZOMA will have a most positive and fostering affect on the upcoming generation of young artists in Ethiopia !

A wonderful post! I’m grateful that the National Museum is standing. The Dictator Mengisto murdered tens of thousands of intellectuals/students/artists and starved hundreds of thousands of innocent citizens; it’s a joy to read about a country that survived his insanity and is supportive of contemporary art.

Hopefully, the world will support these artists and not exploit them. Gracias Anne.

Hi Anne,

I really enjoyed this post. It was beautifully written and now I have a small sense of why your trip was so meaningful to you. I love the pictures of The Zoma Contemporary Art Center; I wish there were a whole city built of structures like this.

I do not think I even have your email address. I’ll ask Alice for it…
