Omschrijving

Les Routes de l'Art

African Generation : The Power of Design is a reflection of the continent's creative force, and the first book to reveal such a broad spectrum of contemporary design practice in Africa. This discipline, which combines aesthetics and function, is one of today's most dynamic industries, and an unquestionable factor in the rapid and spectacular growth of the continent. Sketching a wide overview of design in its many forms, this book demonstrates the vitality of a particularly innovative sector that is rethinking traditional craftsmanship through the prism of contemporary vision, to better consider objects as well as architecture, notably with the use of new technologies.

The book's co-authors are two leading experts in the field of international design. Offering a selection of designers from different regions of the continent and its diaspora, Hicham Lahlou and Mugendi K. M'Rithaa challenge stereotypes about African creation, often reduced to its traditional aspects and/or the imperative of recycling materials. With each turn of page, designers throw open the door to their creative worlds, inviting the reader behind the scenes where sketches, studio shots, and sources of inspiration reveal the creative process. Highlighting the multiple facets of African design, this work celebrates richly diverse influences from across an entire continent. Proof that creation in this part of the world is an incubator of new forms and innovations, African Generation : The Power of Design places African designers at the forefront of international design.
