Revue Noire (magazine)
''Revue Noire'' was a quarterly printed magazine dedicated to African contemporary art, published from 1991 to 2001 by Editions Revue Noire.
==History and profile==
''Revue Noire'' was founded in 1991 by Jean Loup Pivin, Pascal Martin Saint Lóon, Bruno Tilliette, and Simon Njami.〔Lucy Durán (ed.), ''Africa Remix: Contemporary Art of a Continent'' (Johannesburg: Jacana Media, 2007), p. 249.〕 Their goal was to give high-quality printed attention to contemporary African art. It covered varying subjects from sculpture, painting, photography, dance, theatre, music and literature.〔Paula Youngman Skreslet, ''Northern Africa: A Guide to Reference and Information Sources'' (Englewood: Libraries Unlimited, 2000), p. 199〕 There were issues on African cities, AIDS, and even gastronomy. Design played a key role in forwarding its objectives and ''Revue Noire'' has been described as "glossy, fashion savvy and distinctly Parisian".〔(Description ) at Chimurenga Library.〕 Images were combined with largely informative texts that highlighted artistic responses to the international media and the touristic gaze as well as the production of discourses of cultural identity on the continent, the framing the African body, urban sites and rapidly changing dynamics between African aesthetic values and Western influences.
From the beginning ''Revue Noire'' was aimed at the widest possible audience of those with an interest in art, Africa, or intercultural subject matter. Distributed internationally, it was bilingual (English/French), sometimes adding texts in Portuguese. This language policy and its focus on specific regions - from Abidjan to London, Kinshasa to Paris, Accra, Teshie or Johannesburg to New York or Tokyo - not only facilitated access to information on African artistic production but also forged new links between artist based on the continent and those working in the diaspora.
After 34 issues, Editions Revue Noire interrupted the printing of the journal in 2001 and refocused its attention on publishing books, curating exhibitions and posting occasional online content.
