Stolen moments exhibition opens

Breadcrumb

Some Namibians are reliving the memories of when they were deprived of their own identity in music and arts through the 'stolen moments' exhibition.

The project seeks to revive Namibian musical traditions that the apartheid regime attempted to erase.

Before Namibia's independence in 1990, many were made to believe that the country had no real musical legacy.

Popular productions by Namibian artists from the past were hidden from the masses under the apartheid regime, depriving many an opportunity to connect with their own musical heritage.
