A collaboration between the Goethe-Institut South Africa and the University of Cape Town’s African Centre for Cities, Power Talks seeks to critically examine the practice of European cultural institutions working in post-colonial / post-apartheid contexts, to facilitate insight into how these institutions locate and make sense of themselves within the geographical, cultural, social, political, economic and temporal spaces they occupy in Sub-Saharan Africa.
The Johannesburg programme is framed around the notion of Repair, and involves collaborations with a range of practitioners, artists, writers, healers, makers, performers, musicians, spaces and more. You can find the full program here.
