A Celebration of Contemporary Congolese Art

GALLERY ARTICLE 15 IS A UNIQUE ART GALLERY SPECIALIZING IN CONTEMPORARY CONGOLESE ART. ​

Located in the historic Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, DC, Gallery Article 15 features a vast and diverse collection of contemporary Congolese art by emerging, mid-career and established artists. 

 

ARTICLE 15… DÉBROUILLEZ-VOUS! 

Gallery Article 15 derives its name from the well-known idiom in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), “Article quinze…débrouillez-vous.”  Referencing a fictional Article 15 of the DRC’s constitution, it is a catch-all expression meaning “you’re on your own, do what you need to do.”  The phrase can often be found in the DRC’s rich music and art scenes.
