520			_aFollowing the two previous works dedicated, respectively, to Angola and Mozambique, this new book in the “Atlantica” series focuses on the art of Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, and São Tomé and Príncipe, as well as their diasporas. It is edited by the artist César Schofield Cardoso, in conjunction with Mónica de Miranda, who also coordinates the work. The various essays in the book showcase a wide range of formats and writing styles, reflecting the diverse origins of the authors. The book brings together twelve artists born after independence, with distinct histories, perspectives, and artistic visions. The contemporary art practices that emerged or developed in the country are themselves tools of resistance and rebellion and, as such, are central to the decolonization strategies that the artists used to understand, analyze, and resist the socioeconomic impact of everyday events and their own personal realities.Following the two previous works dedicated, respectively, to Angola and Mozambique, this new book in the “Atlantica” series focuses on the art of Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, and São Tomé and Príncipe, as well as their diasporas.
