An overview of Dawit L. Petros's research into the layers of colonial and post-colonial histories connecting East Africa and Europe. Reframing archival materials about the Italian presence in Ethiopia and Eritrea between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Petros has developed an expansive suite of works reflecting the lingering effects of colonial brutality and revealing the links between the contemporary resurgence of nationalism and a suppressed colonial past.

On n’y pense peut-être plus, mais l’espace public belge compte pas mal de monuments en mémoire du passé colonial belge. Ces monuments existent encore aujourd’hui, vénérant l’État libre du roi Léopold II jusqu’à l’indépendance du Congo en 1960. Jan Kempenaers a sélectionné et photographié une quarantaine d’entre eux. L’ensemble peut être considéré comme un inventaire, une collection d’images qui étaient autrefois placées pour l’auto-confirmation du système. Jan Kempenaers n’est pas un archiviste, pas un photographe documentaire, mais un artiste à la recherche de l’image ultime. Parfois, les monuments sont montrés dans leur intégralité, parfois seulement partiellement. Les images en noir et blanc offrent une abstraction et une fusion du monument et de l’arrière-plan. Kempenaers ne réalise donc pas de portraits d’État qui confirment leur légitimité. Au contraire, la série remet en question leur statut. Que nous disent ces images sur le passé aujourd’hui ? Ont-ils encore leur place dans notre espace public ? À partir de 2006, Jan Kempenaers s’est rendu en ex-Yougoslavie et a représenté des monuments communistes abstraits, appelés Spominici. Ces sculptures fantastiques sont dispersées ici et là, la plupart du temps dans des endroits reculés dans les montagnes et les forêts, des endroits où l’armée partisane du maréchal Tito s’est battue avec les occupants. L’inventaire que Kempenaers en a fait sous le nom de Spomenik a ramené les images à l’attention, et avec elles aussi les histoires et leur signification, d’hier et d’aujourd’hui. Jan Kempenaers a réuni ici cette collection de monuments coloniaux en dialogue avec un certain nombre d’images de sa série Spomenik ainsi qu’avec des œuvres d’art de la collection Mu.ZEE. Le tout se reflète également dans une publication qui a été produite en coproduction avec Roma Publications.

Explorations of the “formering” of the West in contemporary art in the post-communist, postcolonial, posthuman, post-ideological, and posthistorical era. What has become of the so-called West after the Cold War ? Why hasn't the West simply become “former,” as has its supposed counterpart, the “former East” ? In this book, artists, thinkers, and activists explore the repercussions of the political, cultural, and economic events of 1989 on both art and the contemporary. The culmination of an eight-year curatorial research experiment, Former West imagines a world beyond our immediate condition. The writings, visual essays, and conversations in Former West―more than seventy diverse contributions with global scope―unfold a tangled cartography far more complex than the simplistic dichotomy of East vs. West. In fact, the Cold War was a contest not between two ideological blocs but between two variants of Western modernity. It is this conceptual “Westcentrism” that a “formering” of the West seeks to undo. The contributions revisit contemporary debates through the lens of a “former West.” They rethink conceptions of time and space dominating the legacy of the 1989–1990 revolutions in the former East, and critique historical periodization of the contemporary. The contributors map the political economy and social relations of the contemporary, consider the implications of algorithmic cultures and the posthuman condition, and discuss notions of solidarity―the difficulty in constructing a new “we” despite migration, the refugee crisis, and the global class recomposition. Can art institute the contemporary it envisions, and live as if it were possible ?

Thought-provoking reflection on culture, colonialism, and the remainders of empire in Belgium after 1960The degree to which the late colonial era affected Europe has been for long underappreciated, and only recently have European countries started to acknowledge not having come to terms with decolonisation. In Belgium, the past two decades have witnessed a growing awareness of the controversial episodes in the country’s colonial past. This volume examines the long-term effects and legacies of the colonial era on Belgium after 1960, the year the Congo gained its independence, and calls into question memories of the colonial past by focusing on the meaning and place of colonial monuments in public space.The book foregrounds the enduring presence of “empire” in everyday Belgian life in the form of permanent colonial markers in bronze and stone, lieux de mémoires of the country’s history of overseas expansion. By means of photographs and explanations of major pro-colonial memorials, as well as several obscure ones, the book reveals the surprising degree to which Belgium became infused with a colonialist spirit during the colonial era.Another key component of the analysis is an account of the varied ways that both Dutch- and French-speaking Belgians approached the colonial past after 1960, treating memorials variously as objects of veneration, with indifference, or as symbols to be attacked or torn down. The book provides a thought-provoking reflection on culture, colonialism, and the remainders of empire in Belgium after 1960.This publication is GPRC-labeled (Guaranteed Peer Review Content).
