One hundred years after the founding of the cole Coloniale Suprieure in Antwerp the adjacent Middelheim Museum invites Sandrine Colard researcher and curator to conceive an exhibition that probes silenced histories of colonialism in a sitespecific way. For Colard the term Congoville encompasses the tangible and intangible urban traces of the colony not on the African continent but in 21stcentury Belgium a school building a park imperial myths and citizens of African descent. In the exhibition and this adjoining publication the concept Congoville is the starting point for 15 contemporary artists to address colonial history and ponder its aftereffects as black flneurs walking through a postcolonial city.
