The article addresses the question of African inspirations in the works of African-American artists. In the poem Heritage Countee Cullen asks: “What is Africa to me?”. The question was also formulated by African-American intellectuals, social activists, and artists, in particular those associated with the Harlem Renaissance, becoming an important metaphor in formulating racial and artistic identity. The article traces this quest in selected literary works which echo the Dark Continent and supplements the discussion with examples of visual arts from this period inspired by Africa.
