The Contemporary African Art Collection (CAAC) is a private collection created by Italian business man, Jean Pigozzi, over the last 20 years. It includes several thousand artworks featuring paintings, sculptures, drawings, photographs, installations and videos from contemporary artists living in sub-Saharan African countries. Curated from the very beginning by André Magnin, the CAAC is constantly acquiring new pieces, adding new artists and lending works to institutions and museums around the world.

Three years ago, Jean Pigozzi also started collecting contemporary Japanese art, the collection is presented on japigozzicollection.com.
