About Contemporary And (C&) 
We founded Contemporary And (C&) in 2013 to open the conversation and visibility around contemporary arts by cultural producers from Africa and its global Diaspora contributing to wider exchange, building networks and connections, and helping create new narratives around artistic production. C& Magazine publishes weekly features, columns, news, opportunities, reviews, and interviews in English and French. C& América Latina Magazine (C& AL) focuses on the connections between Latin America, the Caribbean and Africa. Texts here are published in Portuguese, Spanish and English. C& works exclusively with collaborators on the ground, meaning first-hand input, assessment, and knowledge. It is a worldwide, constantly growing network of voices that brings complex topics into accessible formats – through language, through digitality, through encounters. Starting with one online magazine, C& quickly gained notability and grew into a much wider constellation – the C& Cosmos – providing space for not only two magazines, but also various artistic projects, a traveling reading room, and educational programs.
