My African Mind

Here is an animated  film about Africa 'My African Mind'  from Angolan artist  Nastio Mosquito It was recently described by Frieze magazine’s correspondent “… perhaps the most powerful piece exhibited at the 2010 São Paulo Biennial.” 

MY AFRICAN MIND from BOFADACARA on Vimeo.

The film “… uses archival footage from the history of Africa, it speaks, with frequent irreverent humour, about the continent’s disasters, conflicts and successes from the beginning of the 20th century to the present. The pace at which the images fly across the screen is exhilarating, even though the content is often disheartening.”
