Back in November French President Emmanuel Macron agreed to return, “without delay”, 26 African artworks claimed by African Republic, Benin.
It has been estimated that some 90% of African art is housed outside of the continent.
Owner of the Hidden Lane Gallery, Joe has made the decision to return his own collection (sourced mainly from the Glasgow auction rooms) to the museum in Bamako, Mali (and to the museum in Port au Prince, Haiti).
The art that has been selected by the Malian museum was on display from 16th February into March at the Gallery.
