To promote new readings of the collection, FAS invites and supports artists, guest curators, writers, and critics to collaborate in its programme. Through international and institutional partnerships and projects, our ambition is to disseminate, circulate and discuss the works from the collection.

FAS supports the recognition of artists as a member of the Delfina Foundation Network of Africa Patrons and of the Yinka Shonibare Foundation, as well as through the donation of works to institutions such as TATE and the Centre Pompidou. Other initiatives over the recent years include partnerships with Hangar - Center for Artistic Research, Gasworks, GREENHOUSE – the official Portuguese representation for the Venice Biennale 2024, La Biennale de Lubumbashi, PhotoEspaña, and Kadist. Recently, FAS became a member of the World Art Foundations organization.

The collection is associated with recent publications and editions such as Opera to a Black Venus by Grada Kilomba, Breadcrumbs of History - Selected works from the FAS Collection andvAtlantica by Hangar Books, envisioning the expansion of the canon of Western culture and enhancing knowledge of the African visual arts. To promote new readings of the collection and to highlight the relevance of thematic aspects emerging from it, FAS invites guest curators, writers, and critics, who collaborate on our collection and publishing program.
