About the course History of art in Africa
In this online course, learn about the history of art in Africa from rock art to modern era.
“Since humankind appears to have originated in Africa, it may well be that art, too, originated here.”
Frank Willett (1997) African Art
The history of art in Africa takes us back to the origins of humanity, the cradle of civilization, the first signs of human cognition, of interacting with the material world and creating visual symbols that represent and interpret them.
