From the Mausoleum to the Momentum. Acts of Artefacts in Humboldt’s Forum
Performance | 03.10.2019
A forum for a stolen knowledge. A knowledge made of stolen skulls. A »shared
heritage« the thieves are talking about does not exist. The thieves have stolen, they
have killed, they have walked on the corpses, in order to exist. Today, they stand on
corpses. From their knowledge to their »Volkswagen« (cars of a people), everything
is invented, mainly the own identity.
The forum of the newly made hero, »Humboldt«,
is a wide field under which trues are lying – they speak and do: acts of artefacts. In
this performance-lecture, the descendant brings herself and the audience in touch
with this Act of acts. She leaves Humboldt’s space, and steps into the gap, that her
sisters and brothers fill today in Africa.
