Among the nearly two hundred artists represented from across the continent and the African diaspora are Beauford Delaney, Ibrahim El-Salahi, Hoyt William Fuller, Wifredo Lam, Simone Leigh, Ernest Mancoba, Zanele Muholi, Kawira Mwirichia, Cauleen Smith, Alma Thomas, and George Albert Yon. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Reflecting Pan-Africanism's ideals of diversity and dialogue as well as its aspirations to egalitarianism, essays from more than a dozen scholars, artists, and practitioners speak to a range of themes and places, while discussing works in all media made or circulated outside the infrastructure of fine art, including LP albums, illustrated magazines, and manifestos. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Distributed for The Art Institute of Chicago \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Art Institute of Chicago\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e (December 15, 2024-March 30, 2025) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eMACBA Museu d'Art Contemporani, Barcelona\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e (November 6, 2025-April 6, 2026) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eBarbican Centre, London\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e (June 10-September 6, 2026) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eKANAL-Centre Pompidou, Brussels\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e (Fall 2026-Winter 2027)\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAntawan I.
