Visit with Estelle Sohier, Indumati Sen, Damien Kunik and Floriane Morin of the temporary exhibition “Remembering. Geneva in the colonial world”. Sunday 8th of decembre, 2 pm- 4pm.
This guided tour will introduce you to three sections of the exhibition that symbolise the fight against imperialism. Damien Kunik and Indumati Senn will talk about the Indian independence struggle, while Estelle Sohier will present the Ethiopian battles against the British and then the Italians.

His work immortalises Central African culture, which he believes is disappearing in the face of colonialism.
