At Foremedia Group , the craft is primarily used to create anything that necessitates a high level of competence. Because of this, the vast bulk of what we call "art" has devolved into a craft. Is it possible to label a "craft" a "art form" based on this? One that, I'm sure, will be argued endlessly for the rest of time.

At Foremedia Group , the craft is primarily used to create
anything that necessitates a high level of competence. Because
of this, the vast bulk of what we call "art" has devolved into a
craft. Is it possible to label a "craft" a "art form" based on
this? One that, I'm sure, will be argued endlessly for the rest of
time.

3. Most of the debate stems from
Westerners' belief that Africa lacked
'art,' since they saw it as largely
focused on painting and other sorts
of figurative art. African Arts and
Crafts was more concerned with
beautifying surfaces such as rock
faces and hides, clay containers and
mud dwellings, and animal and
human skins than with creating
works of art.

4. The metaphorical and spiritual
value of African craftsmen and
women's work, as well as the purely
aesthetic appeal they brought to the
table, were treasured in their
communities. Masters of their trade
have always been appreciated by
their colleagues and have a
particular place in history.

6. African crafts is a popular
source of income in modern
rural areas
One of the major challenges
Africa faces today is preserving
its traditional trades while still
embracing the logic of First
World technology. What matters
most is that the communities gain
while also maintaining their
traditions.
