Jjuuko Hoods is a legend in Kampala for his inventiveness and leadership in the Ugandan art community. His style has evolved over the years, leading to the surrealist pieces he made in the past year for a show at Kampala’s Umoja Gallery, but many collectors love the old Jjuuko. Years ago, his intense cityscapes executed with impressionist brushstrokes clarified what it was like to live in a town as maddening as Kampala.
