Incompatible birth dates
Sources disagree: in 1932 (contemporary-african-art.com; africancontemporary.com; bonhams.com) or in 1937 (Faceted Application of Subject Terminology).
The main date retains its own sources. These alternatives overlap neither all other statements nor the main date. Rank is Wikidata editorial priority, not proof.
