It will emphasize late 19th and early 20th century arts from four main regions: West Africa, Central Africa, Eastern Africa, and South Africa. We will spend more time in West and Central Africa because this is where the majority of research on African art has been done. By the end of this course, you will have a solid base of the art of several renown peoples, a working knowledge of the context in which the objects were used, and an overall idea of the current issues and theories within the field.en-USRhodes College owns the rights to the archival digital images in this repository.
