Re(as)sisting Narratives – Catalogue

Framer Framed presents a unique collaborative exhibition titled Re(as)sisting Narratives, curated by Chandra Frank. The exhibition explores lingering legacies of colonialism between South Africa and the Netherlands through engaging with contemporary artists from both countries.

Re(as)sisting Narratives is a result of a two-year project with South African based partners: District Six Museum and Centre for Curating the Archive. Participating artists explore broader themes such as race, gender, memory, trauma and spatiality in their work. This multi-media group exhibition features work by artists who are connected by a shared interest in evoking and readdressing that what is left behind, that what is (in)visible, and a visual fusion of reality and fantasy to create new ways of being.

This special exhibition publication features an essay from Chandra Frank and interviews with artists Toni Stuart, Judith Westerveld and Sethembile Msezane.
