Art and Artists in Uganda






Francois Gordon the British High Commissioner and his wife
plus Roni Madvhani (Chairman Uganda Tourist Board) and his wife came to our house to choose the pictures (by Ugandan artists) for the Uganda Conservation Foundation exhibition at Collier Bristow Gallery (4, Jockeys Field, London W.C.1) from 10th-29th September.
The artists are donating half the money from sales to UCF.

They are (left to right) Taga Nugabawa, Pualo Akiiki, Henry Mzili, and in front, Margaret Nagawa, Enoch Mukiibi and Fred Mutebi.

They also chose two watercolours by Rob including this Ellie. So he will be exhibited in the same place as work by David Shepherd also of Elephant fame.

If you would like to go to the exhibition please let Rob know and he will arrange to send you an invitation.
