Print has always been an art form for everyone - relatively cheap
to produce and easy to distribute, and intended to be accessible to
all. It links to painting, and creative autographic expression, as
well as to a tradition of satire and protest, both social and
political. Above all, prints are a means of communication and
cultural exchange and, in the context of Africa and the African
diaspora, these qualities have had a particular resonance. The book
covers the period from 1960, presenting and interpreting a variety
of visual images from the V&A collections in terms of their
political and social context, while also addressing their identity
as art and design. It includes prints by Uzo Egonu, Carrie Mae
Weems and Chris Ofili among others, as well as overtly political
work, such as posters attacking the Apartheid policies of South
Africa and material produced by American Black Power organizations.
