Echoing the recent debunking of colonial statues (slavery being one dimension), artistic interventions or activist actions that occurred notably in the wake of the &#8220;Black Lives Matter&#8221; demonstrations (spring 2020), we will attempt to highlight how the colonial past of cities in former European metropolises continues to characterize public space. The approach implements a research method in anthropology that proceeds from the performance. It is a question of grasping social universes from situations that can be described as staged and narrated, in this case performances.<\/p>\n<p>After having freely chosen a subject inspired by a place in the city of their choice that echoes its colonial past, students are invited, alone or in groups, to conceive an action taking place in the public space: wandering, performance, guided tours, &#8220;invisible theater&#8221; (Augusto Boal) or any form of &#8220;heuristic disruption&#8221; highlighting the principles that govern the political order of the public space in democracy today.<\/p>\n<p>The project will be accompanied by the artist Juan Gomes (El Goma, Atari Show), a street performer, who will teach us some techniques of intervention in public space.<\/p>\n<p>The course will be validated either by the realization of an accompanied action and \/ or a file relating either the action carried out or a past action of the same type, or by the writing of a file relating a recent action of d\u00e9boulonnage.<\/p>\n<p>Title in German : &#8220;Dekolonisierung des \u00f6ffentlichen Raums &#8211; eine praktische \u00dcbung im methodologischen Rahmen der Performance Studies&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>in continuity of\u00a0&#8220;Museum On the Couch&#8221; <br \/>Creative and reflexive explorations of public space, summer semester 2021.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The free listeners\/auditors can register by sending an email to curio@orange.fr to receive the zoom link allowing them to participate.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Language: English, German or French.<\/p>\n<p>Starting April 7, 2022 from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m., then every other Thursday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A seminar of the Institute of Ethnology of the University of Cologne, in cooperation with the Rautenstrauch-Joest Museum and the Ecole Sup\u00e9rieure d&#8217;Art d&#8217;Avignon (ESAA). \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/ethnologie.phil-fak.uni-koeln.de\/content.php?kid=436\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 &#8220;Decolonization of the public space &#8211; a practical exercise in the methodological framework of performance studies&#8221; As a continuation of the summer semester 2021, this semester (SoSe2022), the seminar-workshop &#8220;Museum On the Couch&#8221; proposes to look again at how colonial history is inscribed in public urban space (statues, street names, factories, stores, etc.), outside [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1568","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-non-classe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/curioweb.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1568","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/curioweb.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/curioweb.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/curioweb.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/curioweb.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1568"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"http:\/\/curioweb.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1568\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2649,"href":"http:\/\/curioweb.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1568\/revisions\/2649"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/curioweb.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1568"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/curioweb.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1568"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/curioweb.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1568"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
