\u00c9 com enorme satisfa\u00e7\u00e3o que recebemos a not\u00edcia do reconhecimento de Felwine Sarr, consultor do Projeto AFRO-PORT – Afrodescend\u00eancia em Portugal,<\/strong> pela prestigiosa revista de artes londrina Art Review como uma das 100 personalidades mais influentes no mundo das Artes em 2020. Felwine Sarr e B\u00e9n\u00e9dicte Savoy foram distinguidos pelo trabalho de defesa em favor da descoloniza\u00e7\u00e3o das cole\u00e7\u00f5es de museus ocidentais, figurando na 3a posi\u00e7\u00e3o do ranking global da revista<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A revista destaca, em publica\u00e7\u00e3o original, que:<\/p>\n\n\n\n “No single government-commissioned report in recent decades has had such a dramatic impact on cultural debates as that written by economist Sarr and art historian Savoy for French president Emmanuel Macron in 2018. By proposing the unconditional restitution of any object in national collections obtained through colonial-era \u2018theft, looting, despoilment, trickery, and forced consent\u2019, the two reignited long-smouldering arguments over the role of Western museums and the artefacts they hold. The repatriation debate has only become more heated in the last year. Savoy has become a de facto spokesperson for repatriation, speaking up for Congolese activist Emery Mwazulu Diyabanza \u2013 arrested for symbolically reclaiming an artefact from the Mus\u00e9e du Quai Branly in Paris \u2013 while embarking on a \u00a3700k academic research project into the provenance of European cultural treasures. Sarr, meanwhile, has turned his attention to the urgent issue of Africa\u2019s political and economic response to COVID-19 and after. And in October France confirmed that it would return 27 colonial-era artefacts to Benin and Senegal.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n A lista completa pode ser acessada AQUI<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Felwine Sarr e B\u00e9n\u00e9dicte Savoy distinguidos pelo trabalho de defesa em favor da descoloniza\u00e7\u00e3o das cole\u00e7\u00f5es de museus ocidentais […]<\/p>\n
