NEW // Art institutions in the North-West of England have been pivotal in exhibiting Black British artists over the decades, writes Dr Anjalie Dalal-Clayton. So why do our public art collections remain so white? buff.ly/3drIG2r @cvanetwork @AnjalieDC @AHRC_BAM

Important 2 call out inequity 4 black artists/staff in visual arts. Argument would be stronger if it was factual & didn't erase current black artistic directors from the narrative. theguardian.com/artanddesign/2…
