It considers other transnational contexts, in the light of the historical and contemporary dislocations of theories and practices, of subjects and commodities, of images, sounds and texts across the Black Atlantic (Gilroy), namely Brazil, as well as internationalist alliances during the Cold War. It examines the ways in which artistic practice and visual culture have been critically reflecting on the history of the European colonial empires, post-colonial migrations and diasporas, and globalization, thereby contributing to an epistemic decolonization.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>CEC Team<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">M\u00f3nica de Miranda<br \/>\nAna Balona de Oliveira<br \/>\nManuela Ribeiro Sanches<br \/>\nRaquel Schefer<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Partnerships<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hangar Centro de Investiga\u00e7\u00e3o Art\u00edstica, Lisbon<br \/>\nAfrica.cont, Lisbon<br \/>\nBuala, Lisbon<br \/>\nInstituto de Hist\u00f3ria de Arte, FCSH-NOVA, Lisbon<br \/>\nMaumaus, Lisbon<br \/>\nEGEAC Galerias Municipais, Lisbon<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Activities <\/strong><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Talk with Sammy Baloji and Filip De Boeck, <em>Urban Realignments: Ethnographic and Artistic Ventures into Congo\u2019s Cityscapes,\u00a0<\/em>24 March 2018, Hangar Centro de Investiga\u00e7\u00e3o Art\u00edstica, Lisboa. <a href=\"http:\/\/cec.letras.ulisboa.pt\/en\/events\/talk-with-sammy-baloji-and-filip-de-boeck\/\">More info<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Artist talk and roundtable <em>In Between (and Beyond) Lubumbashi and Lisbon: The Collaborations of \u00c2ngela Ferreira and J\u00fcrgen Bock<\/em>, May 2014, Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Lisboa. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.comparatistas.edu.pt\/en\/events\/2014-2011\/in-between-and-beyond-lubumbashi-and-lisbon-the-collaborations-of-angela-ferreira-and-jurgen-bock.html\" target=\"_blank\">More info<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Curating of the exhibition <em>\u00c2ngela Ferreira.
