Another renowned father-figure of contemporary African art is El Anatsui from Ghana who creates large, installation sculptural pieces from bottle tops and cans and anything else he can salvage. As well as producing these monumental tapestry works he has sculpted with wood as a media for quite some decades.

Depicted here is one of his most simply carved, figural pieces integrated with a base of textured and decorated found wood.

The Tradition (2019)

Jericho Brown’s daring new book The Tradition details the normalization of evil and its history at the intersection of the past and the personal. Brown’s poetic concerns are both broad and intimate, and at their very core a distillation of the incredibly human: What is safety? Who is this nation? Where does freedom truly lie? Brown makes mythical pastorals to question the terrors to which we’ve become accustomed, and to celebrate how we survive. Poems of fatherhood, legacy, blackness, queerness, worship, and trauma are propelled into stunning clarity by Brown’s mastery, and his invention of the duplex―a combination of the sonnet, the ghazal, and the blues―is testament to his formal skill. The Tradition is a cutting and necessary collection, relentless in its quest for survival while reveling in a celebration of contradiction.
