Delighted we can finally announce our partnership with @AfricanArtists in Lagos, Nigeria. Our project ‘Written by us, Not about us’ aims to address the lack of critical discourse surrounding the arts, particularly visual arts, in Northern Ireland and Nigeria.

So taken by Rita Donagh’s work presented online at the recent @NIArtNetwork @courtauldgs conference, I purchased an exhibition catalogue from a @WhitworthArt Exhibition in 1977. #FeministQueerNI
Highly Recommended.
