- M.A.R.K.
As a direct response to the horrors of World War II, the United Nations were
created as an international forum for peacebuilding and conflict resolution. On
October 24, 1945, the UN-Charter entered into force. On the occasion of the 75th
anniversary of this day, the Rwandan poet and singer Kivumbi King and his
fellow-musician Kaya Free from Burundi are kicking off an artistic collaboration
honouring the spirit of the Charter as well as the victims of wars, state crimes and
political violence.
The artists give special attention to the colonial rule in German East Africa,
modern-day Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi. Whereas Tanzania is remembering the
traumatizing years of German colonialism by commemorating almost 300,000
deaths, Germany's hold hardly plays a role in Rwanda's or Burundi's heritage
practice. The artists are tackling this discrepancy by scrutinizing the life and time of
Richard Kandt, resident on behalf of the German Emperor in Rwanda between
1907 and 1914. It is reported that the explorer was a charismatic figure in his time.
In fact, he is well-respected in Rwanda until today, since his former residence in
Kigali is now a natural history museum named after him.
King’s and Kaya’s creative output is reflecting Kandt’s work against the backdrop
of the destructive consequences of German colonialism in Africa. Their cultural
production is called “More About Richard Kandt” (M.A.R.K.) and is committed to
explore new ways of cooperation in order to shape a future that transforms both
the colonial and the postcolonial mind-sets.
M.A.R.K. is made possible by the Burden of Memory project fund, provided by
Goethe Institute Cameroon and Namibia. The fund supports cultural practitioners from Africa,
who work on the confrontation with the German colonial past in their countries
and offers to deal with the negative consequences of German colonialism in Africa.
