The second in the Tate’s four-part ‘Across the Board’ project, which focuses on African art and its representation, will be kicking off with a major symposium in Ghana this month.
In the last 10 years, non-state institutions and cultural platforms have been busy occupying local art scenes throughout Africa in order to produce new ways of connecting art and society. This symposium will examine how African networks are continuing to encourage professional development and long-term conversations about art and social change.
