Museum of African Art

About

An important aspect of Museum work is publishing, which is based on the regular publication of exhibition catalogues, monographs, texts and articles by African Studies experts and professionals, as well as the "AFRIKA: Studies in Art and Culture" journal. Another field of work for the Museum are visiting exhibitions: both hosting and travelling outside the MAA space into new display spaces and among "new" museum visitors present a challenge and a reason to use every possible chance to organise exhibitions and programs in the country and abroad. Besides exhibitions, the presentation of the cultural heritage of Africa is achieved at the Museum through popular programs such as the Afro Festival, AFRAM and Coloured World which, through lectures, film screenings, art and music workshops, thematic evenings and concerts - expose the richness of African creativity. For more than thirty years this institution has made a significant contribution to promoting and fostering cultural relations and encouraging the principles of multiculturalism and cultural diversity. Endorsing the importance of African and non-European cultural and artistic heritage in general is the foundation upon which the overall work of the Museum of African Art in Belgrade is based.
