Abstract
One of the great embarrassments
confronting the art world in the postcolonial
context is the recent history of the
exclusion of much of the world’s ‘artistic’
production from the hallowed walls of the fine
art galleries of the West (Sally Price’s ‘civilised
places’). One might ask: how was it that it
was excluded for so long and who is to blame
for keeping all this art out? However, rather
than attributing blame, it is much more interesting
to analyse the historical process of its
inclusion.
