Gallery 1957 is a contemporary art gallery located in Accra, Ghana. The gallery intends to present artists of West Africa and the diaspora.[1] It was established in March 2016 by British construction company owner Marwan Zakhem.[2][3] As of 2018, the gallery has shown artists including Serge Attukwei Clottey, Gideon Appah, Modupeola Fadugba, Godfried Donkor, Yaw Owusu, and Zohra Opoku.[4]

Gallery 1957 opened on Ghanaian Independence Day on 6 March 2016, and is named for the year that Ghana gained independence from British colonial rule.[5] It opened its first two locations at the Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City in Accra,[6] opening with exhibitions by Ghanaian artists Serge Attukwei Clottey[7] and Godfried Donkor, respectively.[8] In October 2020, the gallery opened a London location[9][10][11] with an exhibition by Ghanaian artist Kwesi Botchway, co-curated by British writer Ekow Eshun.[12]

Ghanaian writer and filmmaker Nana Oforiatta Ayim serves as the gallery's creative director.[13] The gallery also organises the Yaa Asantewaa Art Prize, which recognises African female artists in the international art scene. It is the first art prize dedicated to female African artists.[14]
