Summary, etc. An issue of the Nka devoted to commemorating and celebrating the work and legacy of Okwui Enwezor<br/><br/>"Okwui Enwezor: The Art of Curating" is a comprehensive exploration of the life and impact of Okwui Enwezor, a pivotal figure in contemporary art and curatorial practice. Enwezor, a Nigerian curator, art historian, and critic, is celebrated for his transformative exhibitions that challenge conventional narratives and highlight the diverse expressions of global contemporary art. This book provides insights into Enwezor’s philosophy of curating, emphasizing his focus on issues of identity, displacement, and the complexities of postcolonial contexts.<br/><br/>Chika Okeke-Agulu, the author, examines Enwezor's influential projects, including the Venice Biennale and Documenta, as well as his efforts to bring African and diasporic artists to the forefront of the international art scene. The book also delves into Enwezor's commitment to making art accessible and relevant to broader audiences, addressing the intersections of art with politics, globalism, and social justice.<br/><br/>Through a combination of critical essays, interviews, and visual documentation, Okeke-Agulu captures the essence of Enwezor’s curatorial vision and his lasting legacy in reshaping the discourse around contemporary art.
