Under the artistic direction of Joël Andrianomearisoa, HAKANTO CONTEMPORARY is an independent, non-profit, artist-led space based in Antananarivo, Madagascar. Taking its name from the Malagasy word for “aesthetic”, HAKANTO celebrates and supports artistic creativity in Madagascar through exhibitions, studio spaces and residency programmes. Dedicated to showcasing the richness of contemporary Malagasy art, the 300 m² space - located in the Ankadimbahoaka district in the south of the capital - contributes to dialogues between local and international arts scenes. Supported by the Fonds Yavarhoussen endowment fund, HAKANTO initially opened to local audiences in February 2020.
