As part of the Museum on the Move education program, 500 students from Broward County Public Schools had the opportunity to work with artist Samson Kambalu at the NSU Art Museum, Florida, on themes inspired by his exhibition Nyau Cinema:
Samson Kambalu- Q&A Whitechapel Gallery, London: In Samson Kambalu’s magazine spread-inspired installation Introduction to Nyau Cinema, his ‘Nyau’ short silent movies are combined with written reflections on visual culture, post-colonialism and cinema. Here the artist discusses with Sofia Victorino (Daskalopoulos Head of Education & Public Programmes) how he began making films, the role of the projectionist, and how the concept of ‘wasting time’ informs his work.
The NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale presents Samson Kambalu’s first solo show in the USA, “Nyau Cinema”. Kambalu employs Thomas Edison’s prototype film studio ‘Black Maria’ as framework for his installation. “Nyau Cinema”, a New York Times autumn pick, will run from 25 November – 23 April 2017.
Samson Kambalu will deliver the Stolzenberg-Doan Annual Lecture at Nova Southern Eastern University, Florida USA – speaking on ‘Nyau’ and the economy of the gift. Watch a TEDx Roma short version here.
