PART 1 of Western Beef feat Western Union is now open @limbomuseum

Bacon/Barrington a group show
29 Oct 2026
Limbo Museum is pleased to present Western Beef ft. Western Union, the first presentation on the African continent by Alvaro Barrington (@alvarobarrington), curated by Diallo Simon-Ponte (@diallosimonponte), opening October 31.
Part of Limbo Museumâs Visiting Artist Program, the exhibition marks Barringtonâs largest installation to date, extending his painting practice into a new site-specific work that responds to the museumâs unfinished architecture.
The title brings together two familiar fixtures of diasporic life: Western Beef, a New York supermarket serving Caribbean, African and Hispanic communities, and Western Union, a service through which money earned abroad is sent home to support families, build houses and more. Moving between these two worlds, Barrington reflects on his upbringing in New York and a practice rooted in Caribbean culture and the movement of people, goods and ideas across the diaspora.
Presented as part of Accra Cultural Week, hosted by @gallery1957, Western Beef ft. Western Union will unfold over three months through screenings, workshops and public conversations.
Join us for the opening this Saturday, October 31, at Limbo Museum, Accra.
On view through February 1, 2027.

Recent Metaphor drawings by Alvaro Barrington. Returning to New York after more than a decade in the UK, Barrington began these works as a way to reflect on the city that shaped him and his understanding of art. He draws on hip hopâs practice of sampling, in which an artist lifts elements of anotherâs music to build their own, and applies it to drawing styles, forms and mark-making to reexamine widely consumed images.
Mic Drop stacks microphones on top of one another, recalling Philip Gustonâs use of horseshoes for bodies. The diptych I Will Always Love You renders Dolly Parton and Whitney Houston in Warhol-style drawings. Glass Half Full, Half Empty is a heavy charcoal drawing in the manner of Richard Serra.

@alvarobarrington, the Venezuelan-born, London-based artist, loves 2Pac: âThere was a moment where he was making music about everything that he felt,â he tells @jellison22. âAnd thatâs always been my bar â art is just a way for me to explore what I really feel.â As this weekâs #Aesthete, he also shares his passion for Audre Lorde, wearing paint-covered clothes like Basquiat and New York before Lena Dunhamâs Girls.

#356 FALL 2026âŻâBordersââŻIS OUT NOWâŻâŻ
At the confine between two entities, many things can emerge: movement, conflict, understanding. The Fall issue of Flash Art explores the concept of borders â not just geographic ones, but poetic, conceptual, and material â seeking to uncover how permeating these divides informs our material reality.

Horen gebeurt vanzelf. Luisteren is iets wat we leren.
Met Hearing Shack nodigt Alvaro Barrington (@alvarobarrington) bezoekers uit om stil te staan en zich af te stemmen op hun omgeving ĂŠn op zichzelf.
De houten en metalen structuur in Park Sonsbeek is geĂŻnspireerd op de woonkamers van zijn familie op Grenada: plekken waar mensen samenkwamen om naar elkaar te luisteren en gehoord te worden.
Omringd door de geluiden van het park ontstaat ruimte voor reflectie. Hearing Shack laat zien dat luisteren niet alleen gaat over wat we horen, maar ook over de verhalen die we over onszelf en anderen vertellen.
ââ
Hearing happens automatically. Listening is something we learn.
With Hearing Shack, Alvaro Barrington invites visitors to slow down and tune into both their surroundings and themselves. The wooden and corrugated metal structure in Park Sonsbeek is inspired by the living rooms of his family in Grenada: places where people gathered to listen and to be heard.
Surrounded by the sounds of the park, visitors are invited to reflect. Hearing Shack suggests that listening is not only about what we hear, but also about the stories we tell ourselves about who we are and how we connect to others.
