Barthélémy Toguo was born in Mbalmayo, Cameroon, in 1967. From 1989 to 1993, he studied the plastic arts, first at the INSAAC of Abidjan, then at the ESAD of Grenoble, and then at the Kunstakademie of Düsseldorf. While he lives in Europe and has become a French citizen, Barthélémy Toguo’s roots remain deeply entrenched in Cameroon, and he returns there on a very regular basis.
