אודות פרק זה
The author of a new book that examines the role and under-representation of Black people in traditional Western art has spoken to FRANCE 24 about how her youth as often the only Black person in the room led her to the idea for the book. Alayo Akinkugbe was born in Nigeria but studied in England from her early teens, right through until the end of her degree in art history from the University of Cambridge. She says she has combined both to write her book "Reframing Blackness: What's Black about 'History of Art'?" She spoke to us in Perspective.
