Aleksandra Gačić: From the Voyeur's Gaze to Visual Sovereignty

Drawing on modern Ethiopian art and contemporary Ethiopian literature, which will serve as a framework for the interpretation of motifs and themes in Aïda Muluneh's imaginary and work, Aleksandra Gačić's lecture will think more broadly about the socio-political contexts in which art is produced through a range of Ethiopian theorists. In parallel, the lecture will shed light on important aspects of Ethiopian production of knowledge, art and literature.
