Explanation of Festac (Second Festival Of Black Arts And Culture)
This is the second black and African arts and culture festival (see Negro Art World Festival in Dhakar in 1966). The participants used the event to design a cultural empowerment strategy: they wanted to protect the black culture from being destroyed by other cultures and stop it to be seen only in the context of primitive museum artifacts. Today many people see Festac as a turning point in the development of black global awareness. This allows artists to talk about identity, discuss the issue of cultural resurrection and think of their collective survival. But there was criticism at that time with several African countries who refused to take part because of the political situation in Nigeria, while the President of Senegal, Leopold Senghor, released his position as the Co-Patron Festival.
Artists on display at Festac include Winston Branch, Ronald Moody, Carrena Mercian, Uzo Egonu, Armet Francis, Emmanuel Taiwo Jegede, Neil Kenlock, Donald Locke, Cyprian Mandala, Ossie Murray, Sue Smock, Lance Watson and Aubrey Williams.
