20 toonaangevende hedendaagse kunstenaars uit alle continenten tonen op uitnodiging van Museum De Lakenhal hun visie op de huidige geglobaliseerde wereld. Dit doen ze aan de hand van bestaand of nieuw werk, waarbij ze zich laten inspireren door Leidse museale collecties. Het resultaat is een boeiende afspiegeling van actuele thema’s en ontwikkelingen in de ons omringende wereld. De werken – vaak grootschalige installaties, videoprojecties, sculpturen, etc. - zijn te zien in De Meelfabriek, een imposant, voormalig industrieel complex aan de rand van Leiden. Tot de geselecteerde kunstenaars behoren de Ghana ThinkTank, een mondiale denktank die in 2006 in Ghana werd opgericht door Christopher Robbins, John Ewing en Matey Odonkor.

Together with the award-winning Nigerian photographer Akintunde Akinleye, anthropologist Dr. Marloes Janson hit the road in the summer of 2013 to map the most important and busiest Nigerian road - the 120-kilometer long Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. While it has failed as the artery linking the north and the south of Nigeria, the highway has succeeded as a stage for the performance of public religiosity to the extent that it can be described as a 'Spiritual Highway'. The convergence of Christian and Muslim elements makes the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway a true crossroads. At this crossroads prayer camps act as road-builders in rendering meaningful the unstable flux of life in megacity Lagos.

Democratic South Africa has seen the rise of what I call coarse or granular political actions. By challenging the legitimacy of elections, diverse campaigns have unveiled a bargain element that undergirds the concept of a representative parliament either through charismatic personalities or strong party constituencies.

Met zijn easy-going uitstraling, zijn enorme reputatie als voorvechter van humanitaire zaken en zijn aanstekelijke en dansbare grooves verenigt Rocky Dawuni al jaren generaties en culturen. CNN riep hem uit tot een van Afrika's Top 10-wereldsterren. In Paradiso bewijst de Ghanese reggae-ster waarom.  Deze inspirerende man trad al op met Stevie Wonder, Peter Gabriel, Bono, Jason Mraz en John Legend en hij heeft fans in Afrika, het Caribisch gebied en de VS. Eind maart 2015 verscheen Rocky Dawuni’s zesde album, ‘Branches of the Same Tree’.
