DÁ FALA

Eduardo Aquino

Yonamine was born in Luanda in 1975 and lived in Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Brazil, UK and Portugal. His spatial installations and video works deal with Angolan history, simultaneously they are also inspired by popular culture and pop-art itself. The archeology of images from the collective archive is challenged by ironical comments concerning the present situation in Africa, playing with icons and heroic figures. Starting point for the installation Anthology Trash – Trash Anthology was the publication archive of the Iwalewa-Haus, whioch is deconstructed and questioning.

Exhibition Time: 27.11.11 to 04.03.12

Iwalewa-Haus, University of Bayreuth, Germany
