This magazine is part of the International Inventories Progamme, a collaboration between The Nest Collective, SHIFT, the Goethe-Institut Kenya, The National Museums Kenya etc. It is published in the context of: Invisible Inventories: Questioning Kenyan Collections in Western Museums, an exhibition project by the International Inventories Programme. The contributions from IIP members and Kenyan museum professionals and practitioners critically reflect museum and restitution politics but also the limits of the cooperation between African and Europeans museums. Besides conversations, essays and texts that accompany the artworks in the exhibition with the same title, the publication also contains a number of object biographies written by different authors that provide different perspectives on the very same objects. The zine supports the decolonising approach of the project by providing perspectives yet underrepresented in international discussions and aims to contribute to the debate on colonial histories that are inscribed in collections and museum.
