We’ve Come to Take You Home questioned collection and belonging at UCT

THE STORY, IN BRIEF

Nkgopoleng Moloi’s March 2020 ArtThrob review examined We’ve Come to Take You Home #1 at Michaelis Galleries, an exhibition of acquisitions intended to reshape the University of Cape Town’s art collection. Moloi welcomed greater attention to previously excluded Black artists while questioning the authority and language of institutional inclusion. The review frames collecting as an active negotiation over heritage, belonging and which artistic histories receive recognition.
