IU's Institute for Advanced Study to host NEH institute on 'Recasting Lives in African Cities'

By IDS staff · Wednesday, June 29,2016 6:45 p.m.

A rare three-week institute focused on arts and culture in the cities of Accra, Lagos, Nairobi, New Orleans and Port-au-Prince will be hosted this summer by the Institute for Advanced Study on the Indiana University Bloomington campus. "Arts of Survival: Recasting Lives in African Cities" takes place July 6 to 26 and will bring together 22 faculty and three graduate students from universities and colleges all across the United States. Funded by a $191,592 National Endowment for Humanities grant, “Arts of Survival” will allow college and university teachers to explore modern urban culture and arts in cities that share African roots but have been shaped by unique histories. The goal is to examine interactions between art and everyday life in African and African diaspora cities, especially in post-catastrophe environments.
