As part of the group exhibition Megalopolis - Voices from Kinshasa at the GRASSI Museum Leipzig, a joint tour with the participating artists of the places associated with the reception history of Lumumba took place. The group discussions on site were presented in video tableaux based on historical photographs. In these, the original hierarchy in the image space is questioned by the presence of the protagonists and is overwritten by the current discussions both visually and in terms of content. The video installation Revisits was presented for the first time as part of another round table talk next to the exhibition space. After the talk, the second part of the event was followed by a public choir rehearsal, in which a Leipzig choir rehearsed an excerpt from the original score of Paul Dessau's Requiem.
