Atelier Moustapha Dime

Atelier Moustapha Dime was the studio of the late Senegalese sculptor, Moustapha Dime (
1952-1998). The studio is situated on the side of a cliff that forms the seaward wall of Goree Island's old fort. Goree Island is a twenty-minute ferry ride from Dakar, the capital of Senegal. A student of Dime (and visual artist in his own right), Gabriel Kemzo Malou has transformed the space into a small artist residency and film screening venue. Atelier Moustapha Dime is a partner center of the freeDimensional network and is regularly an OFF site of the Dak'Art Biennale. Atelier Moustapha Dime is also known as Centre International de Formation et Résidence Artistique (CIFRE) .
