Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intimate reflection on culture and tradition, creativity and power, that draws on a lifetime’s commitment to aesthetic encounter The playwright, poet, essayist, novelist, and Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka is also a longtime art collector. This book of essays offers a glimpse into the motivations of the collector, as well as a highly personal look at the politics of aesthetics and collecting. Detailing moments of first encounter with objects that drew him in and continue to affect him, Soyinka describes a world of mortals, muses, and deities that imbue the artworks with history and meaning. Beyond Aesthetics is a passionate discussion of the role of identity, tradition, and originality in making, collecting, and exhibiting African art today. Soyinka considers objects that have stirred controversy, and he decries dogmatic efforts—whether colonial or religious—to suppress Africa’s artistic traditions. By turns poetic, provocative, and humorous, Soyinka affirms the power of collecting to reclaim tradition. He urges African artists, filmmakers, collectors, and curators to engage with their aesthetic and cultural histories.

Book excerpt: "Yoruba Girl Dancing is at once acerbic and moving and painfully honest about the cost of emigration and adjustment."--The Washington Post Born into a privileged Nigerian family, Remi Foster has a life in Africa that is a celebration of love and family, eccentricity and ritual. But at the age of six she is uprooted when her father sends her to a posh all-girls boarding school in England. There, the only black in a school of perfect English girls, she navigates the labyrinth of race, caste, and culture, enduring taunting classmates and foreign holidays celebrated with strangers. Finally, caught between two cultures, Remi must discover who she truly is--a Yoruba girl dancing. "Effortless, elegant, charming . . . Bedford has created a gutsy girl . . . of naturally hot temper, undercut by a canny survival instinct, a cool number, yet all too capable of bewilderment and hurt."--Chicago Tribune
