The Divine Comedy: Heaven, Purgatory and Hell Revisited by Contemporary African Artists

ABSTRACT This review of Simon Njami's seminal exhibition, The Divine Comedy: Heaven, Purgatory and Hell Revisited by Contemporary African Artists investigates the curator's effort to globalize contemporary art through cross-cultural interaction. It argues that the reinterpretation of Dante's canonical poem by contemporary African artists creates an exhibition that is less about art or Africa and more about meanings.
