Art and the Church: A Fractious Embrace
A vibrant critical exchange between contemporary art and Christianity is being increasingly prompted by an expanding programme of art installations and commissions for ecclesiastical spaces. Rather than 'religious art' reflecting Christian ideology, current practices frequently initiate projects that question the values and traditions of the host space, or present objects and events that challenge its visual conventions. In the light of these developments, this book asks what conditions are favourable to enhancing and expanding the possibilities of church-based art, and how can these conditions be addressed?

Stick to the Skin
The first comparative history of African American and Black British artists, artworks, and art movements, Stick to the Skin traces the lives and works of over fifty painters, photographers, sculptors, and mixed-media, assemblage, installation, video, and performance artists working in the United States and Britain from 1965 to 2015.

And what of the work of artists based in these cities -- artists like Akinbode Akinbiyi, Jane Alexander, Luis Basto, Willie Bester, Sokari Douglas Camp, Calvin Dondo, Godfried Donkor, Kan-Si, Bodys Isek Kingelez, Samuel Fosso, Moshekwa Langa, Santu Mofokeng, Zwelethu Mthethwa, Ousmane Dago Ndiaye, Eileen Perrier, Penny Siopis, and Patrice Felix Tchicaya? Africas: The Artist and the City aims to illustrate a moment in which a fertile collision is taking place between traditionand modernity, between the local and the global -- and to introduce the settings where this confluence is taking place.
