Performance und Gespräch mit AA Bronson: A Public Apology to Siksika Nation

In the organizer's words:

AA Bronson at K21:
The artist presents his performance "A Public Apology to the Siksika Nation". In it, he deals with the colonial violence of his great-grandfather, an Anglican missionary who worked on the Siksika reservation in the 19th century.

The work is the result of extensive archival research with historian Ben Miller. The apology was first issued in 2019 in the presence of Siksika elders and is based on traditional indigenous forms of public apology.

The performance will be shown again as part of the exhibition "Grund und Boden". As an introduction, Bronson will speak with curator Kolja Reichert, followed by a discussion with Ben Miller, moderated by Karen Archey.

AA Bronson(1946) is a co-founder of the legendary artist group General Idea and has lived in Berlin since 2013.
The event will be held in English.
