For years I have been using the “Who’s Who in African Art”, searching names and data of collectors and dealers.

Today, the “Who is Who in African Art” is available for free online on a website called Danster Research. This project is coordinated by Bruno Claessens.

The nice thing is that since it is online, the search results are instant.
You even get entries results that are phonetically close to your search, and images from the people when available.

To make Danster Project better they have a special, but interesting request:
We would like to receive photos from people who are listed in the “Who is Who in African Art”,
although there are circa 16.000 names listed, we only have ca 1.200 photos of people or galleries.

If you are interested in “the past”: provenances, data, photos etc. please contribute to these files.

1) Check the names in the Who’s Who at:
http://www.danster-research.com

2) So if you have pictures or information’s from people that are in the Who’s Who please send them to:

mailto:bruno.claessens@gmail.com?subject=(Who-is-Who)&cc=david@african-antiques.com

GIVEAWAY: Find something useful for us and you get access to a very special website(s). The first 100 people who will find 5 or more missing images, will get 6 months free in the African Art Club.

We also have a few freebies we’ll send those of you who give there address and give us interesting informations and images.
