Join Alinta Sara each week on a journey around the modern and contemporary art of Africa.

As well as seeing some astonishingly beautiful works of art made over the past 100 years, the course will challenge the assumption often made by Western art historians that African art belongs under  categories such as ‘folk’ or so-called ‘tribal’ art.

As we will see, Africa has an exciting art history and a vibrant art present, with artists producing work that expresses the unique African experience.

The course is taught in an open and inclusive way, so your thoughts, experiences and opinions will be welcome as part of the discussion.

It is aimed at complete beginners, and no previous qualification or knowledge of art or art history is necessary. All welcome!

Runs 18:00-20:00 (UK time) every Monday starting 11th November. All welcome!
