This study focusses on the exhibition of the Tree of Life, a sculpture made in
Mozambique of decommissioned, dismantled weapons, created to celebrate peace and
commissioned by the British Museum, chosen to be the symbol of the “Africa 2005”
season of cultural events and exhibited in its Great Court between February and
October 2005. This artwork was first exhibited in Maputo before being dispatched to
Britain and it is presently on display at the Sainsbury African Galleries of the British
Museum, in London.
This dissertation moves along two converging routes: the articulation of the meaning(s)
produced within the exhibition and the role of exhibitionary institutions in the creation
of social knowledge. A central topic of discussion is the different practices and sites of
exhibition of the Tree of Life sculpture in Britain and in Mozambique, in an endeavour to
illustrate/establish the differences which determine and/or condition the specific
approaches used in the two distinct cultural contexts within which it was exhibited.
The discussion evolves towards exploring how a new discourse on the exhibition of
contemporary African art questions and challenges both curatorial practices and cultural
concepts of collecting, displaying and interpreting art objects and negotiating meaning.
