Publication accompanying and expanding the similar titled exhibition at Pace Gallery, London (Jul 8 - Aug 5, 2022). The exhibition explored the ways the unresolved traumas of Africa’s colonial past, and its unfulfilled project of decolonization, continue to haunt the present global order. The reader further expands on these complex ideas through philosophical, historical, and literary approaches. Reprinted texts by thinkers such as Achille Mbembe, C.L.R. James, and Sabelo J. Ndlovu-Gatsheni explore the historical experiences of the African post colony and the problematics of decolonization. Meditations on artists including John Akomfrah and Abraham Oghobase provide engaging entry points to their multi-layered artistic practices. Also featured are images of artworks in the exhibition and an in-depth conversation between Bouchra Khalili and KJ Abudu.
