Artgence is a Paris-based curatorial platform and art consultancy dedicated to showcasing eco-conscious contemporary art from Africa and the diaspora. Our mission is to elevate emerging and mid-career artists who confront environmental, cultural, and social issues through innovative, sustainable practices.

Rooted in the belief that art is a catalyst for change, Artgence creates immersive exhibitions, curated experiences, and strategic partnerships that bridge the gap between the art world, environmental advocacy, and technical innovation. We specialize in introducing bold, thought-provoking works into new markets—fostering dialogue around pressing global concerns such as waste management, textile pollution, and climate justice.

By collaborating with artists, collectors, institutions, and environmental experts, Artgence seeks to redefine the role of art in sustainability—not just as commentary, but as a powerful tool for education, transformation, and global connection.
