The Visual History Lab 2021 took place in September 2021 at City SALTS in Birsfelden/Basel in the context of the tricontinental research and exhibition project «Quilombo». Students produced a video based on interviews with participating Brazilian, Congolese and Swiss artists and curators – reflecting on the artistic project and on the role of Quilombos, Brazilian settlements of African descent, as places of resistance.

The video is presented to the public at the Basel Art Weekend at City SALTS:
