Sale Title : signed ‘Daudi K/12' (lower right) acrylic on canvas 69 x 50cm US$ 570-800 Karungi graduated from the Margaret Trowell School of Industrial and Fine Arts at Makarere University, Uganda in the 1990s. He has subsequently become a well-known artist in Uganda and Founder of Afriart Gallery, Kampala. Karungi is particularly interested in issues of identity: “Africans are masters at the art of façade…My work is about the tension between these personas and the reality that lies beneath them.†Daudi has exhibited extensively in Kampala and abroad, most significantly as part of the exhibition A Light from Africa at Broome Street Gallery, New York in 2009, the New Grounds exhibition at Susan Elley Gallery, New York in 2008, and Crossing Africa East to West in Copenhagen, 2007. This painting was part of a series made for an exhibition at the Makarere Gallery entitled ‘DAUDIMZILI: A Dichotomy of Creativity in 2012.'
