Join this discourse
In recent years, artists and makers intervene into these knowledge systems. They formulate approaches to read the colonial archive against the grain or perform on commemorative sites to invite multivocal readings of the past. In this event, DutchCulture and the Zuid-Afrika Huis invite several artists to share their interventions in knowledge institutions between the Netherlands, South Africa and other contexts.
This event is organized to bring together artists, knowledge institutions and (policy) makers working with heritage and knowledge systems. This event is co-organized by the Zuid-Afrika Huis and DutchCulture, the discussion will be moderated by Carine Zaayman (Wereldmuseum).
