The Missed Seminar

Free

The Missed Seminar reprocesses archival material on the life, thought, relationships and writings of African American anthropologist, feminist and photographer Eslanda Robeson. Beginning with her friendship with philosopher Franz Loeser and their encounters in East Berlin in 1963, the curatorial study asks: what if their exchange had been the setting for a seminar?

The exhibition and series of talks unfold Robeson and Loeser's unfinished political aspirations and propose an intersectional imaginary of anti-fascism, black feminism and techno-politics.

In conjunction with the exhibition, artist and filmmaker Steve McQueen presents the full version of End Credits for the first time. It brings together the audiovisual installation of thousands of digitalised files collected by the FBI during the Cold War and the decades-long surveillance of Eslanda and Paul Robeson.
