C& Center of Unfinished Business
24 January 2025
Closes: 30 April 2025
The C& CENTER OF UNFINISHED BUSINESS is a mobile reading room that offers visitors an extraordinary, sometimes disconcerting selection of books that are connected to the topic of colonialism in various ways – from the German colonies to Congolese fashion to 21st century capital markets, the reading room stretches the subject to the many different areas that are affected by it. However, it is not about creating a library on colonialism that is consistent and complete, because: when would it ever be? Colonialism is an unfinished business that continues to exist in many ways.
The C& CENTER OF UNFINISHED BUSINESS opens on 24 January at 6pm, .
This issue of the C& Centre of Unfinished Business is produced in cooperation with:
