ANGAZA AFRIKA: African Art Now
Angaza Afrika, the Swahili for shed light on Africa, is a statement of this book's mission: to illuminate Africa's immensely fertile artistic landscape.
It brings together more than 60 of Africa's most creative contemporary artists from across the continent as well as from the African diaspora. It illustrates the diversity and vitality of these artists, whose work leaps off the page in more than 350 colour images. In addition to painters, sculptors, ceramic artists and photographers, there are a number of artists whose work embraces performance and installation. The materials used by these artists range from the traditional to the highly unorthodox, as does the imagery in their work.
