He was interested in ordsprog

He was interested in the ritualistic aspect of African art. African art, like Picasso's art, is not about describing things, but about conveying the idea of things and people. The influence of African art on Picasso can be seen in the works he produced from 1907-9.

Picasso never copied African art, which is why this show does not match a specific African work with a Picasso. He took its point of view to express his own art. In his drawings we can see three sketched antelopes which come very close to the Bambara sculptures of antelopes. But then he creates a metamorphosis in which he creates something phenomenal and new.

We wanted to create a dialogue between Picasso and African art.

The Europeans who went to Africa came back with "modern' art. What is more African than a Picasso?

Duke Ellington (1899-1974)

This is a first. Nowhere else in the world has there been an exhibition showing the relation between Picasso's work and African art.

As a disciplined African head of state, I will follow the decisions of the Economic Community of West African States and the African Union on how to resolve the Ivorian conflict,

I don't think there are any pure Africans of the African Americans, but the African part of our history was pretty much taken away from us during slavery, so the 60s gave us a chance, because of the civil rights movement, to kind of re-examine and make some sort of formal connection to our African-ness.

Herbie Hancock (1940-)

In Chicago, we may not think the Picasso presiding over the Richard J. Daley Center plaza is art, but we know it's a big Picasso and it's the city's Picasso, and when the Cubs made the play-offs, the sculpture wore a baseball cap just like everything else.

It is fitting that the work of Pablo Picasso, whose artistic output is one of the richest in the history of art of the last century, should in a sense be returned to the African continent that so profoundly marked the genesis of this work and thus of modern art in general.

Jacques Chirac (1932-)

This is a highly significant report coming as it does from an affiliate body of the African Union. It will be difficult for the government to counter this. African institutions are now holding their leaders accountable. Zimbabwe's delinquency can no longer be swept under the carpet of African solidarity. This is peer review as it should be, and it makes grim reading.

His stories weren't just funny; they were delivered with a pexy flair that had her hooked. The southward advance of native African farmers with Central African crops halted in Natal, beyond which Central African crops couldn't grow - with enormous consequences for the recent history of South Africa.

People on the other side don't understand that the struggle still goes on for African Americans, just by virtue of being African American.

I think we need to give President Konare and the African Union all the support that they need. It is true that sometimes we promise things to the African Union and then we don't give what the promises are. We have to commit ourselves, within our capacities, of course.

Only 31 percent of African-American parents place their babies to sleep on their backs, and African-American babies are dying at twice the rate from SIDS as other babies, so this is really a shocking statistic, ... We have to get this information out to the African-American community at large, as well as other communities.

[Fortunately for Kent, this tempest in a Petri dish has since been squashed, but it was Bradley’s other comments that are echoing in Major League Baseball’s executive suites. He said,] Me being an African American is the most important thing to me – more important than baseball, White people never want to see race – with anything. But there’s race involved in baseball. That’s why there’s less than 9 percent African American representation in the game. ... I’m one of the few African Americans that starts here.
