Tickets
In 1925, a Mangbetu woman from north-eastern Congo became the viral campaign image of La Croisière Noire, a colonial propaganda expedition across the African continent, sponsored by Citroën.
In 1934, construction began on Citroën’s flagship garage in Brussels, marketing the idea of imperial conquest as much as cars.

The exhibition An infinite woman explores, in two parts, how the Mangbetu women functioned as a colonial symbol and how artists of African descent have reclaimed and subverted this imagery until the present day.
Keen to explore the exhibition independently or with a friend, partner, neighbour or date? Then book an introductory guided tour for up to three people. A guide will lead you through the exhibition’s key stories and ideas and answer all your burning questions.
