Who is the Modern African Artist?

The African Modern Artist is articulate, usually well travelled and very culturally aware. The subject matter tackled by the Contemporary African Art has shifted with the times to include current issues like the Environment, Female Empowerment and immigration to mention a few.

The African Contemporary Artist uses all current visual forms of artistic medium to convey his vision of Africa from installations, painting, sculpture photography and film.

Judging from the recent statistics from the International Auction Houses, there has been a shift in the art market towards greater artistic diversity and a surge in interest in contemporary African Art from the African Continent.
