History
Victorian Henry grew up in Burlington, Ontario and studied Fine Arts at the University of Toronto. She lived with her husband and three children in Lusaka, Zambia from 1972 to 1975, during which she began to collect African art in earnest. Leaving Africa in 1975, Henry began the Ufundi Gallery, specializing in Makonde and other African art. Henry continued making regular trips to Africa, India, and China to buy work until the gallery closed in 1992.
