House Compound in Sirigu

Description
Ghana. Nankani, 1972.

Nationalistic artists were inspired by the Pan-African movement, Harlem Renaissance, and American civil rights movement. It took until the late 1970s for all African nations to be free of colonial rule.


Ghana utilizes the arts to preserve historical and traditional local art and architecture. The Nankani farming communities' distinctive adobe homes are painted with geometric motifs indicating long life, good wishes, and success.
