DAKAR, May 22 Like many other museums around the world, the Theodore-Monod museum of art in Dakar reopened this week after over a year of pandemic-induced closure with a “new vision” and works of art returning to the continent after years.
Visitors will find improvements as well as additions to the already extensive collection.
Built in the early 1930s, the building housed the French Institute for Black Africa since re-named the Fundamental Institute for Black Africa (IFAN) before being converted to a museum in 1960 and named for French scientist and explorer Theodore Monod in 2007.
