As part of its strategic reorientation, MEG has undertaken a decolonial process and wishes to reorient its museological strategy.
A series of conferences is proposed to provide insights into this issue. Anne Lafont, art historian, author of "L'art et la race : l'Africain (tout) contre l'oeil des Lumières" will discuss with Marie van Berchem, artist, creator of "La bateauthèque : savoirs en chantier", about decolonial thinking in relation to art, from the 18th century to the present day.
Speakers Anne Lafont, director of studies at the Ecole des hautes études en sciences sociales, Paris ; Marie van Berchem, artist, Geneva
Places are limited and booking is obligatory from Monday to Friday by email to publics.meg@ville-ge.ch, specifying your name, first name, telephone number and the number of people accompanying you.
