African Artists: From 1882 to Now

The book arrived in great condition. Can’t wait to get through it.

My mom loved this book…and so did I! So many amazing artists included here, in one place with nice brief write ups on each.

This is fantastic addition to the field of African art. Excellent resource for students, scholars, or anyone interested in African art.

A true labor of love with an ambitions title that will serve generations of scholars and global art lovers for generations to come. Reads like an encyclopedia, and provides wonderful points of departure for further research. While this is a formidable topic to broach, there are some surprising omissions (for example, where is Willem Boshoff? Surely an artist who participated in the Venice Biennale is worthy of inclusion!). Overall, an excellent resource.

Bought as a gift for my best friend in Spain - he LOVES is. He is a fashion designer and appreciates good books. The book is beautifully illustrated and has so much interesting information. Lovely coffee table book also !

Full of lots of exciting new to me artists and images

Such a beautiful book with amazing artists that everyone should get to know! Very happy with the purchase!

Nothing wrong with the product. A great book. My complaint is with the way it was sent out. No packaging, my address etc just stuck to the celephane covering , which had a rip. Amazingly the book was not damaged, pure luck. Very disappointed Amazon.

Good starting point to start an exploration of the African art scene. I'm glad to see some of my favourites: Roger Ballen, Ibrahim El-Salahi (you can see the painting in the book at the Tate Modern in London), and Colette Oluwabamise Omogbai (the painting in the book was one of the best at an exceptional exhibition at the Barbican in London called "Into the Night"). Very disappointing omission of my favourite African artist, Nelo Teixeira, and his distinctive "Fragmentos da Chicala" series. (unrelated: it would be great to see a similar book about contemporary Indian artists)
