Summary:
A monographic publication featuring multilingual text-film transcripts engaging with the legacy of the German colonial project in Cameroon and Germany, as well as broader questions of border crossings, asylum, and exclusion.The works collected for this publication span installation, video art, and ciné-poems, emerging from anti-racist movements and debates around disidentification, representation, and institutional critique—through the medium of moving images. A key part of the publication comprises films created in French and German as part of the research project ''Choix d'un passé'', in collaboration with Moïse Merlin Mabouna. These films are accompanied by textual and visual sequences from the video works S. – ''Je suis, je lis à haute voix and Erase them!'' – The image as it is falling apart into looks. The reader series ''Scriptings: Political Scenarios'', edited by Achim Lengerer, publishes carefully selected scripts and texts by artists that refer neither to academic forms nor to purely literary forms of writing, but rather embed "text" as a fully integral part of contemporary political and visual art practice.
