VirtualL IAS Festival: The Fragility of the Archive

A free Event of the Institute of Advanced Studies (IAS) - UCL – University College London

In the wake of the devastating fire that destroyed the University of Cape Town’s Jagger Library on Sunday 18 April, five scholars who work with and in African archives gather to mourn our collective loss and to consider the fragility of the archive now. What, we ask, can rise from these ashes? What have we lost and what can we redeem from this moment of ecological and epistemological crisis? This event is a conversation with Hlonipha Mokoena (WISER, historian), Thokozani Mhlambi (sound archivist and musician), Jacob Dlamini (Princeton, historian), Tamar Garb (UCL, art historian, curator) and Verne Harris (Nelson Mandela Foundation, archivist, theorist, activist).
