One of the crucial expansive volumes of its type, African Artists: From 1882 to Now compiles a broad sampling of works from greater than 300 fashionable and modern artists born or dwelling on the continent. Inside its 350-plus pages, the large textual content spans a variety of mediums and aesthetics, from Mary Sibande’s sprawling postcolonial installations and Wangechi Mutu’s fantastical watercolor collages to the cotton-embroidered pictures by Joana Choumali. The forthcoming quantity follows the writer’s 2019 ebook Nice Ladies Artists, which gathers works from 400 artists from 54 international locations throughout 500 years, and it’s obtainable for pre-order from Phaidon and Bookshop.
