An African perspective in every corner and on every wall of this UNESCO World Heritage site near the German-French border.
Photographic portraits, paintings, video installations and sculpture — 26 works that organisers say explore Africa, addressing its cultural history, intellectual traditions, and challenging stereotypes.
“’The True Size of Africa’ is trying to change our view on Africa,” explains Dr. Ralf Beil, the curator of the exhibition.
“We underestimate the whole role in history and the own history Africa had before colonialism. All this is part of this show, and this is what we aim to show: how big the influence was from African people because they were forced to leave Africa,” he adds.
