| Sidney Littlefield Kasfir |
On the 29th of December 2019, the African arts community
lost one of its most committed and brilliant scholars, Prof. Sidney Littlefield
Kasfir.
Sidney occupied a crucial
place in the lives and careers of many scholars of her and the following
generations.
She was seen last at the
Triennial in Ghana in 2017 where ACASA formally recognized her distinguished
contributions to the field of global African art as a scholar, teacher, and
mentor.
She will be remembered for her pioneering work on contemporary African
art as well as her research among Idoma and related peoples of the Niger/Benue
confluence.
