Where are we now in relation to structural violence, de-colonising culture and relations, and the power of aesthetics and its explorations of complex formations of racial identities?
This question formed a central part of this symposium, convened on the 20th anniversary of "Mirage: Enigmas Of Race, Difference & Desire" at the ICA, curated by David A. Bailey and organised in collaboration with INIVA. Furthermore, if the 1995 project marked a moment of considering the importance of Frantz Fanon and ways in which his writings on post-colonialism, identity, cinema and psychoanalysis intertwined with artistic practices and race, then what should the contemporary moment reflect upon?
Speakers in Part 2 include Yasmina Reggad, Osei Bonsu, Greg de Cuir Jr and Melanie Keen, followed by a panel discussion.
