This panel discussion, part of a major international symposium at Tate Liverpool, considers recent developments in the globalisation of the contemporary art of Africa and its many diasporas. Speakers include: Leon Wainwright, Chris Spring and Roger Malbert. The event was in association with the exhibition, Afro Modern

This study day explored issues raised by a major Roy Lichtenstein retrospective at Tate Modern. His extraordinary body of work is the springboard for a critical exploration of ideas around the meaning of pop in the US and UK and its legacy for contemporary art and culture. Curators, academics and artists will contribute to the debates.
