In Afropolis _ Seminário com Kerstin Pinther no ISCTE, LISBOA
Seminário de Estudos Africanos, intitulado In Afropolis. On the making of an exhibition on art and urban practices, apresentado pelo Professor Doutor Kerstin Pinther.
Afropolis _ Lagos. Kerstin Pinther.“Today, over half the world’s population lives in cities. In particular, the regions of the Global South face rapid globalisation, with African cities recording the highest urbanisation rates. The African contexts have created specific urban structures, topographies and cultures, notably different from European-American models of urban development. How do these structures function? How do urban dwellers organise their daily life? What issues are addressed in the African discourse on the history and future of cities? What positions do European and African artists take on urbanity in Africa? The Afropolis exhibition is showcasing five African cities - Cairo, Lagos, Nairobi, Kinshasa and Johannesburg.”
