Published by Hirmer Verlag and jointly distributed by University of Chicago Press The Smithsonian’s National Museum of African Art will release the catalog to its landmark, award-winning, multi-platform project “Heroes: Principles of African Greatness” Sept. 3. Initiated and led by curator Kevin D. Dumouchelle, the “Heroes” project has grown from an in-person exhibition built of more than 50 art works from the museum’s collection, which ran from 2019 to 2022, to an ongoing multimedia digital experience featuring videos, an interactive tour, a curated playlist and finally, a book published by Hirmer Publishers and jointly distributed by the University of Chicago Press. The book, authored by Dumouchelle, is available in bookstores worldwide. Designed to meet a reader at their own level of interest—whether through big abstract ideas, intimate stories of personal achievement, close examinations of artistic imagination and excellence or via extra-sensory audio and digital interaction—I hope that the book may inspire future artists, storytellers and, indeed, potential heroes in the years to come.
