Written by one of the foremost scholars of African art and featuring 129 color images, Postcolonial Modernism chronicles the emergence of artistic modernism in Nigeria in the heady years surrounding political independence in 1960, before the outbreak of civil war in 1967. Chika Okeke-Agulu traces the artistic, intellectual, and critical networks in several Nigerian cities. Zaria is particularly important, because it was there, at the Nigerian College of Arts, Science and Technology, that a group of students formed the Art Society and inaugurated postcolonial modernism in Nigeria. As Okeke-Agulu explains, their works show both a deep connection with local artistic traditions and the stylistic sophistication that we have come to associate with twentieth-century modernist practices. He explores how these young Nigerian artists were inspired by the rhetoric and ideologies of decolonization and nationalism in the early- and mid-twentieth century and, later, by advocates of negritude and pan-Africanism. They translated the experiences of decolonization into a distinctive "postcolonial modernism" that has continued to inform the work of major Nigerian artists.

Описание:
Wholly Tales: Butterfly & Grasshopper and Red Rose & Calla Lily are the first in the Wholly Tales series. Butterfly & Grasshopper are two friends who fly out to the field of green grass on a sunny day to admire the color and beauty of spring season. They only learn that they were part of the beauty of this field. It is inspired by Psalm 139:14, "All creatures of God, unique in their individual nature yet are wonderfully made." This story teaches kids that they are beautiful no matter how they look, with each kid wonderfully made by the loving God.
Red Rose & Calla Lily is a story inspired by Proverbs 16:18, "Pride goes before destruction." It is the story of two friends who had a disagreement because Red Rose got up one day with pride in her heart. She decided she wants to leave the garden full of other flowers and go up to a mountain where she can stand out by herself, being the preferred flower for many festive occasions. Despite every effort to persuade her by the much meeker friend Calla Lily, she insisted. What happened next is a lesson to teach kids of the imminent dangers of pride.

Описание: As the prophet was commanded in Ezekiel 40:4, so too was author Yahnwe Okeke instructed to document everything that was disclosed to her through dreams and visions concerning the Judaic roots of the Igbo people of Southeast Nigeria. In Judah Awakening, she chronicles the day-to-day experiences-cum-revelations. A written record of her spiritual encounters and confirmation from internet research, she shares details of her visions and dreams as they happened on different days beginning July 1, 2018, and continuing until the last day, January 24, 2019. Okeke summarizes her journey and highlights the key words which symbolize the core message of her experience. Judah Awakening presents an insightful journal of Okeke's supernatural revelations of the Israel ancestry of the Igbos of South-East Nigeria, providing the words the Holy Spirit spoke regarding any connections between Israelites and Igbos. It offers a work that touches on religion, science, culture, and so much more.

Описание: Contributors to this issue reconfigure concepts of art, culture, and politics through the lens of cosmopolitanism. Focusing on the historical and cultural entanglement of Africa and Europe at the intersection of decolonization and modernity, the contributors emphasize the potential of cosmopolitanism to shape possibilities for coexistence and living with difference among all people. Visual and textual essays address the causes and consequences of migration between Africa and Europe; the classification of artistic practices whose roots are not confined to any particular nation; and mid-twentieth-century debates on decolonization, modernity/modernism, and identity through a cosmopolitan viewpoint. Examining cosmopolitanism through theoretical perspectives as well as visual art practices, contributors to this heavily illustrated issue fill in the gaps in contemporary understandings of cultural and political dynamics between Africa and Europe.
