Cool Links for Black Culture in Paris
I'm traveling for the next two weeks and am not able to do any in-depth reporting on events, etc. in Paris during that time. To keep the blog active during the first week of my absence, I've put together a short list of Web sites that I think you'll find entertaining. Enjoy!
Art/Afrique, le Nouvel Atelier
The Fondation Louis Vuitton is hosting two exhibitions of contemporary African art plus a selection of works from the Foundation's permanent collection.
