Artist Kehinde Wiley and PUMA helped commemorate the Africa Cup of Nations 2010 through a series ofart works and products culminating with the PUMA Africa Unity Kit. In a video capturing the background of the project, the American artist took a trip to Africa to gather inspiration and converse with some of Africa’s biggest footballing superstars, Samuel Eto’o, Emmanuel Eboué and John Mensah. A compelling aspect of the journey includes a look into the methods that traditional African patterns are created as well as strong aspects of Africa’s landscape such as music. The final for the Africa Cup of Nations 2010 will conclude on January 31st, 2010 featuring Ghana and Egypt.
