Duration
1h

The exhibition ‘Dekoloniale – what remains?!’ explores Berlin’s deep-rooted involvement in the global history of slavery and colonialism and critically engages with this past.

The exhibition recounts stories of violence and resistance at three significant sites: the Nikolaikirche, which hosts the tombs of colonialists; the (post)colonial Afrikanische Viertel and the “Asian-Pacific Streets” in Berlin Wedding. It also explores Wilhelmstraße 92, site of the Berlin Conference. “Dekoloniale – what remains?!” seeks to engage with these historical legacies in the public sphere.

With artistic works by the Dekoloniale Residents: Tonderai Koschke, Charlotte Ming, Percy Nii Nortey, Yangkun Shi and Theresa Weber.
