Paperback. Condition: New. This multifaceted reader explores the cultural heritage of the pre-colonial Kingdom of Benin, in the territory of what today is Nigeria. Objects from Benin are held also in Swiss museums and, as in other countries of the Global North, have become the subject of controversial debate. The richly illustra…ted volume offers new findings on the historical and current significance of artefacts. Moreover, it highlights the current dialogue with partners from Nigeria and the diaspora, reflecting on the methods of cooperative research and the future of the objects currently kept in Swiss collections. Biographies of individual items and examples of mediation and exhibition practice provide an insight into interwoven histories, the international art trade, and post-colonial reconciliation work between Africa and Europe.Mobilizing: Benin Heritage in Swiss Museums is published as part of the Benin Initiative Switzerland (2021-24), a project by eight Swiss museums focusing on provenance research on artefacts from colonial contexts. Texts and images invite reflection on art works and values, relationships, and views of history. The close collaboration with representatives from Nigeria and the diaspora enables new forms of knowledge production. This not only sets cultural heritage in motion, but also the museum as an institution itself.

Auch in Schweizer Museen befinden sich Objekte aus Benin. Neben neuen Erkenntnissen zur historischen und aktuellen Bedeutung der Artefakte zeigt das reich bebilderte Buch auch den heutigen Dialog mit Partnerinnen und Partnern aus Nigeria und der Diaspora auf. Sowohl die Methoden der kooperativen Forschung als auch die Zukunft der hier verwahrten Gegenstände werden reflektiert. Objektbiografien und Beispiele aus der Vermittlungs- und Ausstellungspraxis geben Einblick in die verflochtenen Geschichten, in den internationalen Kunsthandel und in postkoloniale Erinnerungsarbeit zwischen Afrika und Europa. Das Buch erscheint als Teil der Benin Initiative Schweiz (2021-2024), einem Projekt von acht Schweizer Museen, das sich mit der Erforschung der Provenienzen von Objekten aus kolonialen Kontexten befasst. Texte und Bilder bieten Gelegenheit, über Werke und Werte, Beziehungen und Geschichtsbilder nachzudenken. Die Zusammenarbeit mit Vertreterinnen und Vertretern aus Nigeria und der Diaspora ermöglicht neue Formen der Wissensproduktion. Dabei gerät nicht nur das Kulturerbe in Bewegung, sondern auch das Museum.

Hardcover, 244 pages, 241 Abb. (davon 203 farbig und 38 s/w). 23 x 28 cm. 1,3 kg German text. fine. ISBN 9783940208422. At its height, the Dada movement not only upended European art, it also brought that tradition into unprecedented dialogue with non-European forms of expression. This book offers the first extended analysis of…Dada?s exploration of non-Western art and culture. Richly illustrated essays present close analyses of artifacts from Africa, Asia, and Oceania in the context of Dada and through an ethnological lens. Contributors also investigate the ways in which the influence of Dada can be seen in postcolonial discourse and in the context of cultural transfer. Featuring works by Jean Arp, Hugo Ball, George Grosz, Raoul Hausmann, Hannah H ch, Man Ray, Sophie Taeuber-Arp, Tristan Tzara, and many other artists, this is a major work that will enable a broad rethinking of Dada?s aims and achievements. With essays by Johannes Beltz, Jody Blake, Peter Bolz, Ralf Burmeister, Uwe Fleckner, Nanina Guyer, Christian Kaufmann, Walburga Krupp, Axel Langer, Alexis Malefakis, Fran ois Mottas, Michaela Oberhofer, Valentine Plisinier, Kathryn Smith, H l ne Thi rard, Esther Tisa Francini, Khanh Trinh, Mona de Weerdt, Michael White, and Roger Van Wyk. The book is published in conjunction with exhibitions at Museum Rietberg Z rich and Berlinische Galerie, Berlin in spring and summer 2016. 0 g.
