The true size of Africa. Transcontinental perspectives

Völklingen

An exhibition that literally changes how you see the world. Set inside a towering cathedral of rust and steel, "The True Size of Africa" uses the raw industrial space to confront colonial history and reveal a continent too long underestimated. African sculptures and contemporary works dialogue with massive machinery, creating a haunting, unforgettable perspective shift.
