Next Flag: The African Sniper Reader
This anthology emerged from a series of solo exhibitions by Kendell Geers, Olu Oguibe, Oldadele Bamgboye, Mounir Fatmi and Loulou Cherinet — all artists with connections to Africa and living abroad. Reaching beyond the dialectic of difference typical of so many exhibitions of “non-Western” artists, this collection by a twenty-first-century generation (all participants are between ages 35 and 42) aims to construct a new definition of contemporary African positions. These essays here are written by a diverse group of artists, writers, educators and critics, including Cameroonian Curator Simon Njami, and Olu Oguibe, Associate Professor of Art and African American Studies at the University of Connecticut.
