Imaging art, making history: Two generations of Makerere artists (Uganda). - 296 p.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Emory University, 2000.

In this dissertation, I examine the history of art production and training at the Margaret Trowell School of Fine and Industrial Arts of Uganda's Makerere University. Focusing on the careers of two generations of artists trained at this School between the 1930's and 1990's, I take a two-fold approach. First, while tracing the history of the School through the changing scenarios of colonial and post-colonial periods, I pay special attention to the numerous ways artists from both generations exploit existing indigenous objects, materials, images, ideas, and social memories in their representations to make artistic statements. I examine how these appropriated elements transform as symbols, from one context to another, until many of them become remote from their traditional origins, acquire a new identity, and become integral with the process and enterprise of art-making. Second, I show that the academic legacy of the School plays a crucial role in this artistic process, providing a link among the numerous individual artistic endeavors to connect them into one historical continuum. I argue that though this demonstrates the making of an art history under local conditions, it ultimately claims a global identity for these artists.
