This event takes place at the Exploratorium on Saturday, May 12 at 2pm. Coulson, together with anthropologist Alec Cambell, scoured the continent and visited hundreds of sites, many of them previously undocumented, to discover stunning rock art images. David Coulson will be on hand after the lecture to sign copies of his book.
Admission is free with admission to the museum.
The book contains more than 200 full-color photographs of Africa's rock art which depict animals, mythical beasts, and humans. Through exchanges with modern African tribes, the authors also explored the cultural significance and symbolism of the images and scenes depicted so beautifully by the ancient artists. The Exploratorium is wheelchair accessible.
