AfrikaBurn Retrospective
The AfrikaBurn festival kicks off for the second year running on October 16.
The festival, a local version of the long-running spectacle known as Burning Man which takes place each year in the desert near Black Rock City, Nevada, is, like its American cousin, a different kind of festival. Sure, there’s music and dancing and lots of both, and plenty of people done up in all kinds of strange clothing, or no clothing at all.
But it’s not a freak show. Think of it as a radical art exhibition in the desert a long way from anywhere, where the artists themselves are sometimes the artwork, where self-expression is a highly desirable quality, where you take all your own stuff because nothing is for sale, and where towering artworks made of wood – effigies of men, goddesses, turbines and the like – are burned to the ground at the end while the ecstatic crowds dance around the spectacular bonfire.
