Curated by: Felwine Sarr
The showcase neutralizes the magic object, how to reinvent a new life
for the objects returned on the continent? This reinvention is not fixed
in the object but continues in the living, the development of the space
“receptacle” of the returned objects. This workshop proposes to share
and imagine with the participants a new vision of restitution, as
reinvention.
Please register via mediation@berlinbiennale.de. The number of
participants is limited. Participation is only possible with a confirmation
email.
This workshop is part of the discursive program of the 12th Berlin Biennale.
Taking the restitution debate as a starting point, it explores how colonialism
and imperialism continue to operate in the present.
