The exhibition “Der Kolonialismus in den Dingen” at the Museum Fünf Kontinente in Munich critically examines the colonial history of the museum’s collections. It showcases historical artifacts from Africa, Asia, and Oceania that were brought to Munich during the colonial era, often through violent means. The exhibition delves into the circumstances of how these objects were acquired and the colonial contexts they represent. By presenting these pieces, the museum aims to shed light on the complex histories and the impact of colonialism on cultural heritage.
