RUPTURED HISTORIES: CRITICAL EXCHANGES ON ISSUES OF DECOLONISATION The Ruptured Histories Project brings together a multiplicity of strands of the global debate on Decolonisation to enable us to investigate it from different geographical and cultural vantage points. Decolonising has been defined as the process of deconstructing colonial ideologies, attitudes, mechanisms of power, of superiority, and privilege of Western thought and approach. The awareness created by activist critiques in post- colonial debates and Subaltern studies has today evolved into proactive Decolonisation to address a range of issues. In this context, it’s important to understand that Decolonisation has a history beyond the 21st Century academic discourse and critical practice, as it has long been an integral part of the anti-colonial resistance and a vital part of the national consciousness of post- colonial nations. Original concept: Niilofur Farrukh and Anselmo VillataAICA International’s Fellowship Fund Committee now launches the third in this series of webinars on the complex history and legacy of colonisation and current policies of decolonisation in art criticism, exhibiting and collecting. ‘RUPTURED HISTORIES: THE STREET – DYNAMIC DECOLONISATION BY THE PEOPLE’. This webinar will investigate the informal Decolonisation process where new histories are being written on the street and public spaces. In the last few years we have seen the removal of, or intervention in, statues and monuments from the public space. These interventions are made by artists and the general populace in rejection of official narratives. These actions reveal how public memory is asserting itself to de- glorify the colonial past and its heroes and echo similar actions that followed the independence of post-colonial nations when physical remnants of the past were relocated and re-contextualised. This webinar addresses the interventions of artists and public as an important part of the discourse of Decolonisation. A discourse that is relevant in many countries.
