Kofi Perry (b.1998, Sidon) is an American-Iranian contemporary painter. Using historical methods, his tonal works are embodiments of Afro-futuristic excogitation and anthropological subversion.

His debut institutional solo exhibition “Remnants From the Distant Future” opened in 2024 at the Lightbox Gallery in Woking, UK. Recent selected group exhibitions include Tender Communions at DADA Gallery, London (2024); the Ingram Prize, Cromwell Place, London (2023); and D Contemporary, London (2023). He is the recipient of the Charles Toppan Prize (2020), the Baton Fine Art Prize (2022), and the Ingram Prize (2023). Perry will have a solo exhibition with DADA Gallery during 1-54 in October 2024.
