Dr. Victoria Rovine – Africa, Fashion Design & Colonial History Presentation
An Associate Professor of Art History at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, Dr Victoria Rovine conducted this presentation at the West African Research Center on Wednesday, June 7, 2017. The session was moderated by a young Senegalese filmmaker and design specialist, Mrs Fatou Kande Senghor. Fatou Kande has been working on style and design and integrates various components in her films. As it turns out, Kande’s teachings are based on the many articles and books written by Professor Rovine that she has read over the years. The two women discovered this hidden and unknown connection while sitting and discussing during and after the presentation.
