The Independent. “The Controversy in African Contemporary Art.” The Independent, February 17, 2022. https://www.independent.co.ug/the-controversy-in-african-contemporary-art/

“What is African art and should African diaspora artists enjoy the African artists identity? The term African contemporary art despite its success in global art circles in recent years, has not been without controversy. In the early 1990s and before, the term generated a furor of arguments, including in particular during the1989 triennial symposium gathering of Africanists in the state of Baltimore, USA where mention of the phrase African contemporary art was ‘interpreted as a regrettable intrusion of a tiresome product outside the concerns of serious scholarship’. On other occasions, during the same workshop, the phrase was described as marginal and of irrelevance.”
