"Much has been written about trade and migration between Africa and the rest of the world, but African Textiles Today specifically addressees how African history has been read, told and recorded through cloth... [Spring's] exploration of heritage and global artistic exchange make this a fascinating compendium including more than 200 stunning images of African textile work in recent decades. -Embroidery Magazine
"From tablet-woven Ethiopian church hangings to the designs of Nigerian designer Duro Olowu, Africa's history has been written in cloth... [Chris Spring] revisits the stories revealed by cloth traditions on the continent across the ages, and explores the new directions the tradition is taking today incorporating themes ranging from contemporary politics to HIV/Aids and English football clubs". -ARISE Magazine
"Drawing on his research and publications on topics including kangas, contemporary African art, and the textile traditions of North Africa, Chris Spring is able to highlight interesting and often unexpected parallels between diverse artefacts and traditions... [this] lively book looks ahead to new directions in this fascinating and still under- researched field." --Duncan Clarke, Adire African Textiles

A fascinating insight into the living history of Africa African textiles are patterned with stories that range far beyond the time of the creation or the lifetime of their creator. In Africa, cloth is used to commemorate important events, people or political struggles that in other parts of the world might be recorded in writing, or marked by a plaque or monument. This beautifully illustrated book deciphers these hidden stories, whilst also revealing the relevance of African textiles today, exploring how the dynamic traditions in African cloth-making have provided inspiration for the continent's foremost contemporary artists and photographers. Africa's long engagement with the peoples of the Mediterranean and the islands of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans provides a story of change and continuity, showing how ideas, techniques, materials and markets have adapted and flourished. Accompanied by 200 stunning illustrations revealing the rich variety of textile traditions throughout Africa, this new work showcases some of the world's finest examples of textile arts.
