/A Word Of Art was selected to present an exhibition of young artists that /AWOA has been working with over the years and who have now all become good friends.

These traveled to Switzerland on the 13th of June 2010 for the Focus10 Contemporary African Art exhibition as part of the prestigious Art Basel.
