Reader Reviews
This review is from: A History of Art in Africa (Paperback)
The good thing about this collection is that it includes art and architecture from not only all regions of the continent, but also of the African diaspora from the 16th Century onward. The other good thing is that it includes architectural works, such as those of Great Zimbabwe, Lalibela, and Djenne. The bad point of this book is that the selections are limited. For example, the art of the Nok (the oldest African art outside of the Nile Valley)includes only a few pieces. The worst thing about this collection is that nearly all of the photos are in black and white. It's difficult to appreciate art of such a vibrant nature (with the exception of photography) without colour.
