CRITICAL PERSPECTIVES ON CONTEMPORARY ART AND CULTURE 
Third Text is an international scholarly journal dedicated to providing 
critical perspectives on art and visual culture. The journal examines the 
theoretical and historical ground by which the West legitimises its position as 
the ultimate arbiter of what is significant within this field. Established in 1987, 
the journal provides a forum for the discussion and (re)appraisal of the theory 
and practice of art, art history and criticism, and the works of artists 
hitherto marginalised through racial, gender, religious and cultural 
differences. Dealing with a diversity of visual art practices - painting, sculpture, 
installation, performance, photography, video and film - Third Text 
addresses the complex cultural realities that emerge when different worldviews 
meet, and the challenge this poses to Euro-ethnocentric aesthetic criteria. 
The journal aims to develop new 'discourses and radical interdisciplinary 
scholarships that go beyond the confines of the dominant discourse.

AFRICAN QUARTERLY ON THE ARTS 
a time of swift and confounding changes, a 
time that simultaneously invites 
and rejects statements of selfdefinition 
and redefinition. It is 
now, in this vanishing present, 
perhaps more than ever, that the 
idea of 'Africa' would seem most 
problematic. Africa embodies 
realities as varied and as multifaceted 
as its global diaspora. 
Constantly in renewal, the idea is 
neither unitary nor 
complete. Expectations, 
even by those who 
identify or are identified 
with Africa, can not be 
always assumed. This 
variety, most intensified 
in our age of selective 
globalization, points to 
creative possibilities that 
Glendora Review exists 
as a platform to monitor 
We answer to the call for 
the renewal of perspectives 
on contemporary cultural 
and artistic forms, aware of 
its tone of immediacy. We 
strive to accommodate the 
disparate persuasions that 
define the world today, but 
constantly ensuring that a 
critical journal does not turn Africa 
into a cut-and-wrap discourse 
isolated from the site of its relevance. 
This has sometimes meant 
consciously cultivating an aesthetic 
space for heterodoxy, a celebration 
of the eclectic, and even the 
confounding. Our world admits of 
complexity. 
As a journal of arts and letters 
forged in the crucible of 
marginalization, we are a vehicle 
for varied forms of literary, visual 
and performance cultures, even as 
these are freed and defined by the 
momentous mutations of global 
history. The immediate beneficiaries 
of this editorial outlook are those 
abundant creative energies lurking 
in the big and small corners 
around the African hemispheres. 
We invite you to share in this 
fascinating experience. 
To ensure maximum coverage, 
Glendora Review is working through 
a network of seasoned editors 
located in Africa and North 
America. It's two substantive editors 
are Sola Olorunyomi and Akin 
Adesokan. Sola, a writer and 
freelance journalist, teaches comparative 
literature in the English 
department of Nigeria's premier 
University of Ibadan, while Akin, a 
novelist and erstwhile journalist is 
currently a doctoral candidate at 
Cornell University, Ithaca. Olakunle 
Tejuoso, the editorial director, is a 
music critic and founder of the 
journal, while Ololade Bamidele, a 
literary critic and former co-editor of 
Nigeria's writers' literary magazine 
- 'ANA Review',is the managing 
editor.

ALBUM OF THE YEAR - 2003 
Fatai Rolling Dollar exemplifies the artist who is quintessential^ steeped in creativity, and the fact 
that, despite being off the scene for some twenty-five years, he still sounds as articulate and brilliant as 
ever lends credence to this statement. He had lapsed into obscurity in the 70s when juju music started 
drifting from its naturally creative and improvisional character into a more technologically-driven and 
mechanistic urban form. And due to a lack of relevance arising from frustration, he lived out the 
intervening years in abject poverty in Mushin, a low-density suburb of Lagos, where with a wife and two 
children, he was accommodated in a small, dingy, one-room apartment.
