Hurting and Healing: Let’s Imagine a Different Heritage
Tenstakonsthall —19.3 to 28.8 2022
Tensta Konsthall
Stockholm, Sweden
Works from Brook Andrew's Sunset series (2016) were included in the group exhibition Hurting and Healing: Let’s Imagine a Different Heritage, presented at Tensta Konsthall in Stockholm, Sweden from 19 March to 28 August 2022.
The exhibition poses the following question: How can the understanding of cultural heritage be decolonised by societies and organisations shaped by European knowledge systems? Charles Esche, director of the Van Abbemuseum and Tensta konsthall, engages with a number of artworks, artists, researchers and guest curators, looking closer at how the Western-centric perception of cultural heritage can be challenged and redefined.
Participating artists: Brook Andrew, DAAR (Decolonizing Architecture Art Research) Sandi Hilal and Alessandro Petti, Jeannette Ehlers and La Vaughn Belle, FCNN (Feminist Collective with No Name), Edi Hila, Patricia Kaersenhout, Manjot Kaur, Taus Makhacheva, Rabih Mroué, Renzo Martens and CATPC (Cercle d’Art des Travailleurs de Plantation Congolaise), Otobong Nkanga, Katarina Pirak Sikku and Jonas Staal.
The exhibition was produced in collaboration with the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven. The programme was presented in collaboration with The Royal Institute of Art, Mårten Snickare / Accelerator and Tensta Library, supported by the Mondriaan Fund and the Delegation of Flanders / Embassy of Belgium.
