Traditional music has held Malian society together for centuries. But Mali’s music is in danger. Radical Islamists are imposing Sharia law in the north of the country\, banning dance and secular music\, destroying instruments\, and threatening musicians.

SUMMARY:Sculpture Exhibition: Jowa Toya – Vela Curl by Tzumoto
DESCRIPTION:“Between movement and meaning. Between curly hair and African myths. Form emerges as the Vela Curl.” \nJowa Toya presents freestanding and wall-mounted objects made of veneered wood\, whose design language draws inspiration from “curly hair”—as a symbol of identity\, resilience\, and individual structure. Organic lines evoke movement\, condensation\, and dissolution\, translating hair into a minimalist sculptural language. Each object bears the name of a figure from African mythology (including Anasi Bai\, Bia\, Asase Yaa\, Eshu\, Mawu\, and Oshun)—not as an illustration\, but as a reference to mythology as a repository of knowledge about origins\, transformation\, protection\, and cultural memory. \n>> DOWNLOAD FLYER

SUMMARY:Monday Movie Night: Wax & Gold
DESCRIPTION:Wax & Gold\nRuth Beckermann\, Austria / Italy 2026\nGerman\, English\, Italian\, Amharic with English subtitles\n97 minutes\, color & black-and-white \n  \nIn the late 1960s—a defining decade for Africa—Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie opened the Hilton Addis Ababa\, a grand hotel that became a controversial symbol of his hopes for the continent’s future\, but also of his own self-aggrandizement. Ruth Beckermann takes up residence at the hotel and immerses herself in Ethiopia’s past and present. In doing so\, she navigates between the familiar and the foreign\, between fact and fiction. Her search for historical truth unfolds as a critical examination full of contradictions\, insights\, and moments of enlightenment. Beckermann combines archival footage of the emperor with contemporary conversations and interviews at the hotel\, while also weaving her own reflections as a European woman into the film. At the same time\, she offers glimpses into life outside the opulent hotel\, where workers stand in long lines at bus stops and the skyline is dominated by the skeletons of unfinished high-rises. \n  \nUnfortunately\, we can only offer 33 seats for film screenings. If you’d like to reserve a seat\, please send a brief email to: post@art-of-buna.de. The screening starts at 7:00 p.m.—doors open at 6:00 p.m. Admission is free; donations are welcome. \n
