I would like to upload images to this event

Thursday 28-May-2009 - Friday 03-Jul-2009

The group exhibition focuses on Africa's representation, symbolism and the power of the image within the social, economic, political, historical and cultural spheres of the 20th and 21st centuries. Artist's work explores iconic figures, events and ideas that have contributed, explicitly and implicitly, to the imaging of the African continent around the world. In Signs, the artists use a range of media-painting, sculpture, photography, video, mixed media and installation - to articulate a particular person, idea, event or time period that is significant to the role that African countries, cultures and individuals occupy within global politics, popular culture and economy.
