REMIX AND TUMULT AT THE IWALEWA HAUS, par samlami, le 24 janvier 2014 :"The Iwalewahaus collection dates largely from the 1970s onwards, and consists mostly of artworks and objects that have been bought from artists, so it cannot be subject to the same critique as institutions such as The British Museum.
