Summary:
Nina Mö ntmann's timely book extends the decolonisation debate to the institutions of contemporary art. In a thoughtfully articulated text, illustrated with pertinent examples of best practice, she argues that museums and galleries of contemporary art have a responsibility to "decenter" their institutions, removing from their collections, exhibition policies and infrastructures a deeply embedded Euro-centric cultural focus with roots in the history of colonialism. In this, she argues, they can learn from the example both of anthropological museums (such as the Humboldt Forum in Berlin and the British Museum), which are engaged in debates about the colonial histories of their collections, and of small-scale art spaces (such as La Colonie in Paris or Savvy Contemporary in Berlin), which have the flexibility to initiate different kinds of conversation – for example, by programming exhibitions and events in collaboration with local diasporic communities from the global south.

Summary:
In the 1960s the French colonial regime detonated four atmospheric atomic bombs, thirteen underground nuclear bombs, and conducted other nuclear experiments in the Algerian Sahara. This secret, still-classified programme occurred during and after the Algerian War (1954–1962). Meticulously culled together from numerous sources by architectural historian Samia Henni, this publication’s wealth of materials documenting the violent history of France’s activities in the Algerian desert offers a rich repository for all those concerned with histories of nuclear weapons and engaged at the intersections of spatial, social, and environmental justice, as well as anticolonial archival practices.

Summary:
De la commune d'Etterbeek à celle de Schaerbeek, de la place Royale au parc du Cinquantenaire, Nicholas Lewis nous guide lors d'une déambulation sensible dans les rues de Bruxelles afin d'examiner en profondeur le rapport qu'entretient la société belge à son histoire coloniale. La présence durable de noms de rues, de monuments, de bâtiments et d'institutions glorifiant explicitement la colonisation du Congo constitue un point d'entrée pour regarder en face les déclinaisons de la négrophobie contemporaine. L'ouvrage formule ainsi une remise en question radicale des structures du pouvoir colonial et racial à travers une critique politique et esthétique de l'espace public bruxellois.
