Tekst achterflap

In this book, Rob Perrée tells the story of his involvement in African-American art through a chronological collage of new texts, linking texts, previously published articles, essays, interviews, reviews, columns and short stories from 1990 to 2023. Together, they show the development of African-American art and demonstrate how its appreciation and perception have changed over time, in the US, but above all in the Netherlands as well, among the public and art institutions. It is a look behind the scenes, making his passion for this art visible. Rob Perrée is an art historian, independent writer and curator, and founder of the online magazine Africanah.org. He lives and works in Amsterdam and Brooklyn.
