Art collectors and aficionados are invited to experience Echoes of Origin: The Human Thread, a group exhibition featuring Zimbabwean artists Keith Zenda, Barry Lungu, Tonderai Mujuru, and William Mujuru — exploring heritage, identity, and human connection through contemporary art at (SAAM) Southampton African American Museum in collaboration with ArtGal.Online. Guests will enjoy the Opening Reception on May 23rd, and runs through July 5, 2026 at SAAM, located at 245 North Sea Road in Southampton, New York 11968.

With a growing presence across Europe, the United States, and Africa, Artgal.Online is committed to presenting authentic voices and narratives rooted in heritage, identity, and contemporary expression. The platform actively supports artists through international exposure, professional representation, and the development of sustainable art ecosystems, including its flagship initiative, the Artgal Zim Center in Domboshava.

On view from May 23 through July 5, 2026, Echoes of Origin: The Human Thread anchors a dynamic season of programming at the Southampton African American Museum (SAAM). Presented in collaboration with ArtGal.Online, the exhibition brings together Zimbabwean artists Keith Zenda, Barry Lungu, Tonderai Mujuru, and William Mujuru in a thoughtful exploration of heritage, identity, and human connection through contemporary visual language. Their works collectively examine the threads that bind personal and cultural histories, offering a nuanced perspective on material, memory, and lived experience across generations and geographies.

The exhibition unfolds within a broader cultural framework at SAAM, where it sits alongside a robust lineup of community-centered events and seasonal programming, including the museum’s annual Juneteenth celebration and the highly anticipated Art & Soul: The Hamptons festival in July. Together, these initiatives position the museum as a vital platform for dialogue, celebration, and cross-cultural exchange, reinforcing its role as a cultural anchor in the Hamptons while expanding the visibility of artists working within a global contemporary context.
