Within the framework of the Black Art & Fashion Festival, we want to create a space in which Black, African and Afro-diasporic fashion and art are equally celebrated and a discourse is possible that critically classifies different processes of exclusion, exploitation and appropriation of Black, Afro-German and Afro-diasporic perspectives and seeks resistant answers to them. The festival takes place at the Gesellschaft für Aktuelle Kunst (GAK) and is curated by Sheeko Ismail.
The Black Arts & Festival highlights how colonial continuity, racism and capitalist power structures intersect, but also critically examines fashion, aesthetic art and colonial entanglements and their continuities in our present.
The Black Art & Fashion Festival Bremen is meant to be an invitation to enter into conversation, discuss alternatives and network.
