This conference aims to explore who defines 'the other' and how, who is this 'other' and why does it exist? It is important to break down cultural (and political) stereotypes and clichés. Questioning this is important for everyone and, more particularly, for those who produce these stereotypes. Can (audiovisual) art shake up the polarisation between 'us' and 'them'?
With: Guy Woueté (Artist, Cameroon/Belgium), Sefaan Mabrouk (Artist, Sudan/Belgium), Teddy Mazina (Photographer, Burundi), Ebele Okoye (Director, Nigeria/Germany) and Walter Verdin (Artist, Belgium).
