Summary Annotation Explores the interactive and interdependent relationship between art and religion in Africa, challenging Western perceptions of what is "important" in the continent's visual and performing arts. Case studies and examples reflect the geographical and gendered diversity of the arts and highlight changes imposed by Christianity, Islam, and the newer religious movements in post-colonial Africa. Includes bandw photos and illustrations and a few color photos. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
