The 1980s in Brazil marks the end of the military dictatorship and the dawn of re-democracy. This presentation will focus on the interplay between the prominent musical movement of the time known as National Rock or Brock and the economic and socio-political complexities of the period. More specifically, we will discuss how the 8o's music serves as a unique window into this historical period reflecting on the youth's hopes, dreams and challenges. 

The aim of this workshop is to delve into the profound linguistic and cultural impact of indigenous peoples in Brazil. Furthermore, we will offer an immersive experience through an indigenous song circle, deeply rooted in the authenticity of our ancestral heritage.

Dr. Ndiaye will present and discuss his work as curator and Director of the Théodore Monod Museum in Dakar, Senegal, as well as his new project, entitled “Transmission.” At the Monod Museum, founded in 1936 as the French Institute of Black Africa (IFAN) and renamed the Fundamental Institute of Black Africa at independence, Ndiaye has experimented with research and exhibition projects that interweave contemporary art and historical heritage. This relationship lies at the heart of “Transmission” and underlies Ndiaye’s revitalization of the three museums under his supervision.
