In and Out of Brussels examines four Brussels-based artistic projects that converge in critically investigating the figuration of Africa in the image economy of the West: Herman Asselberghs's Speech Act (2011), Sven Augustijnen s Spectres (2011), Renzo Martens s Episode III Enjoy Poverty (2008), and Els Opsomer s Building Stories: That Distant Piece of Mine (2012).

Bringing together different...
