From that time on, Lilanga\u0026rsquo;s reputation also began to spread beyond his own continent. The works presented here clearly reveal how the artist uses Western materials to serve his purpose. The use of Makonde characters and bright colours creates an impressive display. He links various cultures and traditions in order to convey his experiences and those of his people. These exemplary works by Lilanga function, in the totality of the collection, by way of a contextual deepening of the mural painting by Keith Haring, an artist who was unmistakably influenced by him.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp\u003eVanaf de jaren 70 legt Lilanga zich ook toe op de schilderkunst.

De werken uit de M HKAcollectie tonen dat Lilanga westerse materialen gebruikt en ze hij naar zijn hand zet. Het gebruik van de Makonde-personages en felle kleuren zorgt voor een imposante vertoning. Hij verbindt verschillende culturen en tradities om zijn ervaringen, en die van zijn volk, over te brengen.
