Artists in the Archive: Remembering the Genocide in Namibia Through the Arts by Dr Pedzisai Maedza
This talk considers the role of performance in remembering, memorializing and sustaining the memory of the 1904 to 1908 Herero and Namaqua genocide. It interrogates how contemporary artistic and cultural performances from within and outside of Namibia inform the way in which societal history and the present are presented and remembered across time and space.
