| dc.description.abstract | Excerpt from essay by Nii Otokunor Quarcoopome, Ph. D.: "The exhibition, A Heritage of Teaching: The African Art Collection of Catherine C. Blackwell, serves a manifold purpose. First, it celebrates the world of a unique African American collector, reflecting on her valuable role as cultural agent and pioneer. Second, it seeks to educate the American public about the educational and historical importance of her collection. Third, it aims to enlighten the African American community about the cultural capital to be reaped from developing an appreciation for African art. And last, it aspires to building a sense of cultural pride in Africa that is deeper than the usual affinity forged with Egyptian civilization." | |
