Africa in the Marketplace: A Multidisciplinary Approach
Over the past three years the market has, once again, become a focus of interest in the African Art History scholarly community. The 2011 Arts Council of the African Studies Association conference topic was Africa and Its Diasporas in the Market Place: Cultural Resources and the Global Economy. A the 2012 African Studies Association a double panel focused on “Africa in the Market: The circulation of African Art in the 20th and 21st Centuries.” This panel asks if there are intersections with disciplines beyond art history that might enrich the methodologies of inquiry currently employed. Art historians and/or scholars of other fields, including but not exclusive to development studies, economics, anthropology, sociology, statistics, museum studies, or gender studies, are encouraged to propose papers discussing their methodological approaches to the circulation of African art in the global marketplace.
