A USEFUL DREAM - AFRICAN PHOTOGRAPHY 1960-2010

A USEFUL DREAM - AFRICAN PHOTOGRAPHY 1960-2010

Upon reaching the African continent, in the late 19th century, photography quickly became the best tool for the process of emancipation through the writing an endogenous history.

It gave life, sometimes unwittingly, to the 'new' man that Frantz Fanon longed for by allowing Africans to portray their own selves in images where the subject is no longer a passive being beleaguered by the desires and fantasies of an outside gaze, but an actor in his own biography.

GEO-graphics

A map of ART practices in AFRICA, past and present

GEO-graphicsMore Details
GEO-graphics, the festival’s main exhibition, sets out to recontextualise more than 220 objects of breathtaking beauty from the Museum and from other Belgian public and private collections by bringing them face to face with the work of contemporary African artists. These are being chosen by eight arts centres carefully selected from all over Africa because of the active role they are playing in the development of the cultural sector in the continent. The art centres’ interventions are inscribed in a scenography which sheds new light on how to read the relationship between old and new by highlighting the affinities and ruptures between past and present.

A Passage to Asia

A Passage to Asia

Europe and Asia have had close relations for thousands of years. Commercial and political networks developed both on land - via the Silk Road - and on sea.

A Passage to AsiaMore Details
Conquerors like Alexander the Great, Attila, and Genghis Khan set out in search of glory, wealth, and power; travellers like Marco Polo, Zheng He, and Magellan were fascinated by riches, silk, spices, porcelain, etc. Trade opened the way for the spread of major religious and philosophical trends, inexhaustible sources of inspirations for art and culture. A Passage to Asia throws light on 2,500 years of exchanges between Asia and Europe and also between different Asian peoples. The exhibition presents an exceptional selection of over 300 decorative and artistic objects never previously shown in Europe: burial urns, bronze ritual drums, gold jewellery, ivories, old maps, and unique textiles, as well as extraordinary cargo recently recovered from shipwrecks at the bottom of the sea. Both the exhibition and a festival will coincide with the ASEM (Asia-Europe Meeting) 2010 summit.
