Afro Modern: Journeys through the Black Atlantic

This major exhibition, 29 January – 25 April 2010 at Tate Liverpool, (also traveled to Centro Galego de Arte Contemporánea, Santiago de Compostela, España, July – October 2010) inspired by Paul Gilroy’s seminal book The Black Atlantic: Modernity and Double Consciousness (1993), identifies a hybrid culture that spans the Atlantic, connecting Africa, North and South America, The Caribbean and Europe. The exhibition is the first to trace in depth the impact of Black Atlantic culture on Modernism and will reveal how black artists and intellectuals have played a central role in the formation of Modernism from the early twentieth century to today.

I made a post before. But I have recently found the dvd of installation images, dating April 2010.
