The Missed Seminar
After Eslanda Robeson. In dialogue with Steve McQueen’s 'End Credits'

The exhibition The Missed Seminar reactivates archival material on the life, thought, writings, and relationships of Black feminist, anthropologist, and African-American photographer Eslanda Robeson.

In conjunction with the exhibition, McQueen premieres the full version of End Credits (2012-2022). A haunting monument to the threat posed by US anti-communism at the time, the audiovisual installation brings together thousands of digitised files collected by the FBI during of the Cold War and decades of spying on Eslanda Robeson and her husband, actor, singer and activist Paul Robeson. These entanglements outline the vision of what a decolonisation of socialism could have been.

Private view: 27 October 6pm
Exhibition dates: 28 October - 30 December 2022
