A critical art mediation project was developed with my academic partner and current head of mediation at the MARKK Hamburg, June Lamdjido, for the "Genesis" exhibition of renowned Brazilian-French photographer Sebestiao Salgado at the Museum für Gestaltung Zürich.The aim of the project was to "decolonize" the exhibition and to present early narratives surrounding post-colonial theory to our participants. Our position was quite a radical one. Even going as far as making parallels between the exhibition and the former "Negerdorf" living exhibitions which also took place in the city just 6 decades prior. The curatorial text was equally linked to the objectives of "salvage anthropologists". For more details, please see the attached recommendation letter written by Nora Landkammer.The project was equally featured in an academic book put together by the research project TRACES - "Education in Ethnographic Museums." The book will soon be available in print in both English and German.
