Chirikure emphasizes the transformative potential of the new Museum of West African Art (Mowaa) to challenge prevailing stereotypes about Africa's capacity to care for its artistic heritage.
The museum aims not only to hold returning artefacts but also to establish a new dialogue about African museums’ roles and responsibilities in the 21st century.
Mowaa's state-of-the-art facilities will nurture a new generation of African researchers, reinforcing the continent’s ability to manage and showcase its rich heritage.
The establishment of Mowaa signals a significant shift in perception, illustrating that Africa now has the infrastructure and expertise necessary to protect its cultural legacy.
