Shownotes Transcript
Larissa-Diana Fuhrmann talked about her latest book, Sudan Retold. The book is not primarily concerned with historical details, but with an understanding of historical contexts through artistic representation.Since her MA graduation in African and Islamic Studies at the University of Cologne (Germany) with a focus on art and gender, Larissa works as a cultural manager and curator. After her great experience as an undergraduate student at Khartoum University, she decided to work in Sudan‘s arts scene for several years and founded the urban arts initiative ‘Yalla Khartoum’ with a collective of urban artists and co-founded the feminist band ‘Salute Yal Bannot’.

About Outline:
Outline is a process-focused conversation that looks at guests’ individual projects rather than their full bodies of work. The conversation sketches the journey of the project; the spark of curiosity that led to the project, the process of implementing the idea, the struggles that emerged throughout the implementation, and the aftermath of the project that includes new questions and new ideas. The name “Outline” stems from the idea of creating a retroactive project outline which is part of a broader emphasis on the process of curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking from a nuts and bolts perspective. Outline is not discipline-specific; the series will be held with artists, academics, writers, filmmakers, among others. Join the live audience: https://www.afikra.com/rsvp)
