"AFRICA AND BEYOND IS ONE OF THE COUNTRY'S LEADING GALLERIES SPECIALIZING IN TRADITIONAL AFRICAN ART"
- KPBS BROADCAST AUGUST 2012

Valerie Scher, Arts Journalist, KPBS on the "Midday Edition" Hosted by Maureen Cavanaugh (August, 2012)

CAVANAUGH: "Musical chairs, Valerie. A new exhibition on view at Africa and Beyond Art Gallery in La Jolla. It's about chairs, right?"

SCHER: "Let's say it's about chairs and much more. Africa and Beyond is one of the country's leading galleries specializing in traditional African art. And once you climb the ten steps in the staircase that leads from the sidewalk to the gallery, you are truly in a different world far from the downtown bustle of La Jolla. It has masks, instrument, jewelry, textile, weapons, furniture, even forms of currency. And yes, there are chairs.

I sat on a little wooden bench from Ghana. And it even had good ergonomics."
