WE FACE FORWARD : ART FROM WEST AFRICA TODAY

2 Jun-16 Sep 2012

Overview

A season of contemporary art and music, celebrated across Manchester: http://www.wefaceforward.org Forget everything that you think you know about African art; embrace all that you don't yet know about the art, culture and creativity of West African artists today. Major new sculptural installations, painting, drawing, photography, textiles, video, sound and fashion ask us to consider global questions of trade and commerce, cultural influence, environmental destruction and identity.
