Looted art from Kenya: When the display cases remain empty
The project Invisible Inventories addresses the consequences of colonial looted art for Kenya: It rips deep hole in the identity of the people.
Empty display cases symbolize the absence of Kenyan cultural assets at the Nairobi National Museum

The lost works include ceremonial instruments, shields, smoking pipes, jewellery, carvings and more. Though housed abroad, not all the missing items are not all viewable. At the Rautenstrauch-Joest Museum in Cologne, 82 out of 83 Kenyan pieces have not been publicly displayed. ....
