Collecte coloniale et affect : ramper, dédoubler / Crawling doubles : colonial collecting and affect
-
Collecting objects was a frequent practice in the territories occupied by the colonizing European states. From the second half of the XIX th century, the colonial authorities encouraged their citizens implanted in the colonies to collect objects to enrich the ethnographic collections of the city and to document the material culture of the companies - under the influence of colonization - transformed rapidly. The objects collected during these collections are now found in many European museums or in the hands of private collectors. Their presence in these collections raises epistemological, museographic and ethical questions that urgently need to be raised.
This book, which originated in a series of roundtables that took place within the framework of the 8 th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art in 2014, therefore committed these issues with contributions from researchers, artists as well as international exhibition curators.
