ABOUT THE ARTIST
Dodji Gbedemah is the owner/proprietor of Kente Royal Gallery (KRG) in Harlem, NY. Dodji is a gallerist, curator, and visual artist, as well as a musician and entrepreneur. He graduated from NYU with a business degree and has many years of experience in entrepreneurship, leadership, and management. He opened his gallery after years with companies, such as Zipcar, Uber, and Doordash. He was inspired to put his business acumen and artistic vision to the service of the Community when he noticed the lack of representation of artists of the African diaspora. He opened KRG in 2019 and has worked with many artists to create solo and group exhibitions, including Gabrielle Baker (painter), Bertram Knight (photographer), William Daniels (quilter), and more. Dodji’s works are abstract and figurative paintings deeply rooted in Adinkra symbolism and West African Culture, as well as other subject matter.
