I interviewed the incomparable Françoise Vergès for the ArtReview September issue on, among other things, how the museum sector now realises it can turn contestations of its claims to neutrality and preservation into opportunities for further profit. How can we disorder, then reimagine, the foundations of a house built on extermination, extraction and privatisation? https://lnkd.in/e4s-Q8uD

When faced with pressure to change, institutions often respond by reordering things: new personnel, a different arrangement, a revised remit, a spatial intervention, a lick of paint. The impulse is to cling to order, even when the things these spaces seek to govern – art, history and the centuries of domination, extraction and erasure they bequeath to the present – are ungovernable. Order becomes a form of domination; is disorder, then, the answer? This is the thesis of A Programme of Absolute Disorder: Decolonizing the Museum, a new book by the political theorist and historian Françoise Vergès. A decades-long campaigner for the excavation of France’s postcolonial politics, Vergès grew up in Réunion (an island in the Indian Ocean that remains French territory) and Algeria, descendant of a slave-owning family in Réunion and the daughter of anticolonial politicians. Talking to Sarah Jilani in ArtReview, Vergès explores the problems that come from demanding the museum’s reform while leaving its underlying structures unchanged. “When people in power understand that a certain form of inclusion does not threaten them,” she tells Jilani, “they are ready for it. So we must acknowledge that recognition is not the end of the fight.” Over the course of the conversation, Vergès highlights the ways in which the museum attempts to obscure or erase from public view its own founding pillars of extermination, wealth extraction and privatisation. For Vergès, this kind of museum cannot be decolonised. It must be disordered – pulled apart in every sense, from its management hierarchy to the myths it tells itself about neutral custodianship. Only then, she argues, can we foster ways of understanding the human and nonhuman world that are no longer premised upon domination. Their discussion is as urgent as it is wide-ranging, exposing the many hypocrisies on which these systems are built. On criticality: “The discourse against being ‘negative’ is a way to maintain power over the terms of the debate. It neutralises legitimate anger, and calls justified rage hysterical.” On resisting the right: “What is needed is antiracist antifascism, not vacuous multiculturalism.” On cultural extraction: “Many within the museum sector now realise that they can turn contestations against the museum into opportunities for expansion and profit.” The lasting instruction is to practise suspicion: of institutions, of power, of order – and all its linearity overrules. https://lnkd.in/e2e9Grh4
