Frédéric Bruly Bouabré

Frédéric Bruy Bouabré & nbsp; is a & nbsp; designer & nbsp; and nbsp; Ivorian & nbsp; born the & nbsp; March & nbsp; 1923 & nbsp; at & nbsp; p; January & nbsp; 2014 & nbsp; abidjan1.il is also the inventor of Bété writing, a specifically African writing to save the culture of the people & nbsp; Bété. After the war, he practiced several professions before becoming a civil servant. Following a "& nbsp; divine revelation & nbsp;" that he receives in a dream the & nbsp; March 11, 1948, he devoted himself to giving Africa & nbsp; entirely African writing. This & nbsp; vision & nbsp; will directly influence his life and his & nbsp; work. It is also from that moment that he calls himself "& nbsp; sheik nadro & nbsp;" ("& Nbsp; the revealer & nbsp;" or "& nbsp; who does not forget & nbsp;"). Frédéric Bruly Bouabré created a & nbsp; syllabaire & nbsp; composed of & nbsp; 448 & nbsp; This syllabary bears the name of Bété alphabet, named after the ethnicity & nbsp; It has thus reproduced all the syllables on small cardboard cards. For the creation of his syllabary, he was inspired by geometric figures discovered on stones from a village in the Bété country. Using this & nbsp; writing, he transcribed & nbsp; stories, texts of the Bété tradition and & nbsp; poems. His research was published in 1958 by & nbsp; Théodore Monod, & nbsp; Explorer & nbsp; and nbsp; Scientific & nbsp; . In 2006, the & nbsp; Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art & Nbsp; Geneva & Nbsp; devoted an exhibition entitled to it "& Nbsp; Knowledge of the World & Nbsp;". His work was mainly presented in contemporary art museums, because of the Light puts on Frédéric Bruy Bouabré during the exhibition "& nbsp; magicians of the earth & nbsp;" At the & nbsp; Center Pompidou & nbsp; in & nbsp; Paris, but she also interested the Museums of Art Brut2, the & Nbsp; Museum of Art Brut de Lausanne & nbsp; devoted an exhibition in 2010 and his works to her are part of her collection. The & nbsp; 55th & nbsp; Biennale d'Art Contemporain de Venice also honored him in 2013 where he was among the artists of the Pavilion of Côte d'Ivoire. Among its personal and collective exhibitions, we can note that of the Center Pompidou in Paris in 2014 and the modern modern & nbsp; London & nbsp; in 2010.
