| Sumari: | 'Repainting the Walls of Lunda' chronicles the publication and dissemination of an anthropology book, 'Paredes Pintadas de Lunda,' which was published in Portuguese in 1953. The book featured illustrations of wall murals and sand drawings of the Chokwe peoples in northeastern Angola. These reproductions were adapted in postindependence Angolan nationalist art and post-civil war contemporary art. As Delinda Collier recounts, the pictorial narrative foregrounds the complex relationships between content, distribution, and politicization. The result is a nuanced look at the practices of art entangled in political economies in aesthetics. |
