About the Exhibition

 

How do you deal with a family history that is tightly interwoven with our colonial past? In the exhibition Generasi 3.0 – The Stories We Carry, nine photographers, artists and makers delve into their family histories, which are rooted in the former Dutch East Indies. The search for a better understanding of their origins transcends their individual journeys. Their stories contribute to a broader public debate about the centuries-long colonialization of the Indonesian archipelago by the Netherlands, touching on painful issues such as slavery, war and violence, and their legacy today.

Generasi 3.0 – The Stories We Carry features works by Caja Boogers, Sander Coers, Yara Jimmink, Miranda Devita Kistler, Sebastian & Tyler Koudijzer, Ilvy Njiokiktjien, Sekan and Maarten Tromp.

For this project, the Hague Museum of Photography is collaborating with Museum Sophiahof – From the Indies to the Present Day in The Hague. This exhibition and the public programme are made possible in part by support from the V-Fund and the Mondriaan Fund.
