Our very own Njoki Ngumi and Jim Chuchu had a conversation for the Journal der Kunste 15 this past month, where they discussed the returning of the 27 objects to Benin and Senegal; the unequal power dynamics surrounding that return, their lessons learnt on the International Inventories Programme, and their hopes for object return in the coming future.

Journal Der Kunste is a German publication that includes conversations and contributions by different artists and scholars. These explore different cultural and political themes throughout the year. The publication also includes photo series by different talented photographers.

Catch Jim and Njoki’s conversation here on page 55-56, and the reprinted version on the Talking Objects Lab website here!
