From the publisher:

"This highly illustrated catalogue, which accompanies a ground-breaking exhibition organised by the Whitechapel Art Gallery in London before an international tour, is a unique document presenting the history of modern African art through painting, sculpture and theatrical installations of over sixty artists.

Seven Stories about Modern Art in Africa presents for the first time the contemporary state of African art in ways that manifest the links between different movements, and between the traditions of different continents, while maintaining a sense of the difference between personal and national artistic expressions. As an unprecedented historical compilation and invaluable visual sourcebook, Seven Stories will be welcomed by all those interested in the changing face of the African continent."
