Savage, Polly, Anthony Caro, Robert Loder, and John Picton. Making Art in Africa 1960-2010. Burlington: Lund Humphries, 2014.

What does it mean to make art in Africa? In Making Art in Africa, 60 of the continent’s leading artists give very different answers to this question through a series of extraordinary first-hand commentaries relating to specific works. The book includes accounts from key curators and co-ordinators, and primary images are considered in the context of contemporary events, personal discoveries, and the networks such as Triangle which have brought them together.
