Description
From the Great Lakes region to the West African Sahel, how does modern sculpture define a nation? Ugandan art critic Nathan Kiwere offers a compelling comparative study of two vibrant yet distinct sculptural traditions. He explores how contemporary artists in Uganda and Mali navigate their respective histories—from ancient kingdoms and colonial legacies to modern global influences—to forge new visual identities. This essential text unpacks the subtle dialogues and dramatic contrasts in form, material, and meaning that reveal the changing “soul” of modern Africa through its three-dimensional art.
