Documenta 11 Kassel
Documenta11
Kassel Germany, June 08 September 15, 2002
Exhibition Documenta11
Since 1955 the Documenta is held every five years. Every facet of the exhibition is concerned with interconnections and you really begin to understand the main platform of Documenta as everyone´s right to their home without discrepancy for spaces, regions, traditions. Here the exhibition is quite impersonal and technically informal as all forms of media including sculpture, painting, photography, film, video and installations are in documentation form. To learn the art as opposed to experiencing it.

Creating a formal dialoge of Creole arts and cultures, involving literature and linguistics to figurize the process of creolization. This platform describes the merging of modern cultures to the present day. Researching the origin of language and it´s evolution through the giving of multicultural interactions.
Platform_4
Goethe Institute Inter Nationes, Lagos, March 15 - 21, 2002
Under Siege: Four African Cities, Freetown, Johannesburg, Kinshasa, Lagos
The aim of Under Siege is to challenge not only our perspective of these four cities, but of all cities of the 21st century. Platform_4 explores the divergent paths of political, social and cultural agandas and the consequent unraveling and social undoing of these cities.
Platform_4 did not, however, seek to dwell on the present. Rather it hoped to approach these cities as places of reinvention, creativity, potential and hope.
The conference not only drew ideas from artists, writers and architects, but also from the ranks of economists, criminologists and non-governmental organizations.
