About
Join ADAMA for the opening reception ofThe African Game,a photographic exhibition by acclaimed Nigerian photographer and filmmaker Andrew Dosunmu.Presented during Atlanta’s World Cup season,The African Gameexplores football not simply as sport, but as ritual, memory, spectacle, and shared devotion across the African continent. Shot across Angola, Cameroon, DR Congo, Egypt, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Ghana, Nigeria, and Senegal, Dosunmu’s powerful images shift the lens away from the pitch and toward the fans, communities, and everyday moments that give the game its spirit.With a cinematic eye and deep cultural intimacy, the exhibition captures football as it is lived: woven into neighborhood streets, stadium chants, movement, fashion, gathering, and belonging. What emerges is a visual archive of contemporary Africa alive with joy, resilience, style, and collective passion.Opening night guests are invited to experience the exhibition for the first time alongside music, conversation, and community as ADAMA transforms its space into a celebration of the continent’s enduring relationship to the game and the cultural connections that continue to shape the global African diaspora.Come witness the game beyond the score.Come experienceThe African Game.
