Abstract
African art is the oldest art recorded in Namibia in the Kalahari. Rock paintings on the other hand were originally found in the Sahara region among the Niger people. Some of the numerous distinguishing features of African art are its emphasis on abstract ideas and representations, its fusion of visual and performing arts, and its preference for creative expression above realism. African arts encompass the visual culture of the African continent and its indigenous peoples, including both historical and contemporary works of art. African diaspora art, such as that created by African Americans in the Caribbean or by South American artists influenced by African aesthetics, may also fit the bill. Despite this diversity there are unifying artistic themes present when considering the totality of the visual culture from continent of Africa. African art has a very vast history in the entire world it is very well known. The reason for choosing African art as a thesis topic is because its vibrant colors attract me the most, I decided to take it in apparel with my own aesthetic skills.
