Arguably, Franklin Nwabueze’s greatest work to date, The Dawn of New Beginnings, chronicles a time when the virgin earth in all its beauty and majesty remained pure, untouched, and free from human interference. Rendered with discarded African textiles and acrylic paint on canvas to give the work a multicolored, tactile, three-dimensional appearance, the piece takes the viewer on a journey through time to reconnect with the earth at the dawn of new beginnings.
