Internationally known as the Route of the African Soul, this experience has evolved into a premium, curator-led cultural journey, offering a profound exploration of African art, heritage, and identity in Lisbon.
Over approximately two hours, guests are invited to take part in an immersive and educational experience that goes far beyond a conventional gallery visit.
This is a carefully curated encounter with African memory, symbolism, and artistic expression, hosted in two specialized galleries located side by side, allowing for a deep and coherent narrative.
Afrika Infinity Gallery – African Ethnographic Art
The experience begins at Afrika Infinity, a unique gallery entirely dedicated to African ethnographic art.

Each artwork is presented with historical, symbolic, and cultural context, helping visitors understand not only what they are seeing, but why it matters.
Guests also enjoy exclusive access to specialized books on African art and heritage, reinforcing the educational and academic depth of the experience.
Time is intentionally reserved for questions, dialogue, and photography, creating an intimate and reflective atmosphere.
NinoIArte Gallery – Contemporary African Expression
The journey continues at NinoIArte Gallery, dedicated to contemporary African and Afro-descendant artists.
Here, visitors discover how African heritage continues to shape modern artistic practices, innovative techniques, and powerful narratives connected to identity, memory, and diaspora.
Together, the two galleries create a meaningful dialogue between tradition and contemporary expression, offering a complete and nuanced perspective on African art across time.
