Book Information: PB, 224pp, 180 illustrations, 84 in colour, printed on
glossy paper. This critical history examines the major themes and
accomplishments in African art since 1950, achieving an impressive balance
between a critical re-examination of frequently discussed artists, groups and
workshops and the introduction of less publicized or more recent works. With
chapters on African popular culture, the shifting identity of the African
artist, national culture and migration, Contemporary African Art shows how
transformations in patronage, training and literacy have brought about the
birth of new genres which have been propelled onto a world stage, and now
excite huge interest internationally.
