The works from the Kingdom of Benin tell many stories: of violence, injustice and appropriation, as well as of trade and exchange. We approach their significance and impact from different perspectives. Is the history and whereabouts of the so-called Benin bronzes only the subject of controversy and conflict or is it also an opportunity to recognize interdependencies, build new relationships and thus shape the future together?
With director Anna Schmid, curator Ursula Regehr and researcher Zainabu Jallo
