Alayo Akinkugbe & Zarina Muhammad: Rewriting Art History

Can we trust art history as it’s conventionally told? And who writes its story from now? With her ‘A Black History of Art’ Instagram, A Shared Gaze podcast, and book, Reframing Blackness, Alayo Akinkugbe chats about rewriting art history from an often-omitted Black perspective. And Zarina Muhammad from The White Pube unpacks her book Poor Artists (co-authored with Gabrielle de la Puente) and its wild ride through the contemporary art world via imaginative storytelling and anonymised interviews with big-name artists. Hear both of them in conversation today with Tomiwa Folorunso.
