Join African art expert and author Steiner as he explores the historical dynamics and exchanges that have informed the way people in Africa have created, preserved, collected, and sold their artworks to local and foreign patrons. This new publication, based on the collections at the Royal Ontario Museum, highlights the significant role that African makers and dealers have played in shaping Western understanding of African art. A book signing follows the event.
