A major new study of Black figurative art from Africa and the African diaspora, covering 100 years from the early 20th century to now
See Inside
'The biggest story in art in the past couple of years has been the rise and rise of black figurative painting – especially by women. New voices, with new subject matter and a new determination to have their say, have stormed the patriarchal citadels of western art. The results are exciting and cheering. This is a good introductory selection'
Sunday Times, Art Books of the Year
'This book – aside from being a feast for the eyes – is an abundant art-historical resource, and will be a springboard for discussions around Black figuration for decades to come'
