Abstract

The Democratic Republic of the Congo is world famous today for its vibrant art scene. Its multifaceted, creative, and current art production is unlike any other on the african continent. But the country already brought forth striking masks, sculptures, and pieces of design in times past. Published to coincide with the exhibition at Museum Rietberg, "Congo as fiction" presents objects, photographs, and documents - some never published before - from the archive of german art ethnologist Hans Himmelheber, who traveled the Congo in 1938/39. The artworks and images bear witness to the extraordinary creative force of the period. "Congo as fiction" avoids a biased eurocentric view by having contemporary congolese artists engage directly with Hans Himmelheber's archive. Their critical contributions address the effects of colonialization, global trade, and the art market on the country, and combine the past and present of the congolese art world in an entirely new way.

Abstract

In Visionair België borstelt Harald Szeemann een subjectief en spiritueel portret van 175 jaar Belgische kunst en geschiedenis, waarin bekende kunstenaaars, beroemde personages of zonderlinge en door de geschiedenis vergeten figuren, wetenschappers, uitvinders en avonturiers de revue passeren. Hieruit ontstaat het beeld van een eigenzinnig, non-conformistisch land waar de utopische gedachte leeft ondanks alle politieke, sociale en alledaagse beslommeringen. Plaats van deze tentoonstelling is niet toevallig het Paleis voor Schone Kunsten te Brussel, gelegen in het hart van België, een tentoonstellingsruimte waar visionaire ideeën realiteit worden.

Abstract

"Congo Stars" does not attempt to trace the historic development or even deliver a definition of what popular painting in the Congo is. It is in fact much more about the dimension of fiction in the writing of its history. Processes of nation building, facets of social order or the realities of everyday life are the major themes of popular art in the Congo. Painters see themselves as reporters or chroniclers of the everyday. They tell stories and thus offer an alternative historiography, confronting the traditional colonial narrative. "Congo Stars" places these popular painters alongside artists who work with installations and conceptually with photo and film, while often tackle the same themes.With works by : Abis, Alfi Alfa, Sammy Baloji, Gilbert Banza Nkulu, Chéri Benga, Bodo, Vitshois Mwilambwe Bondo, Burozi, Dominique Bwalya Mwando, Chéri Cherin, Trésor Cherin, Djilatendo, Ekunde, Sam Ilus, Jean Kamba, Lady Kambulu, Eddy Kamuanga Ilunga, Kasongo, Jean Mukendi Katambayi, Aundu Kiala, J.P.
