Pelze Multimedia, von Gästen liebevoll das „Pelze“ genannt, war ein Ladenlokal in einem zunächst besetzten Haus in der Potsdamer Straße 139 in Berlin-Schöneberg. Zwischen 1981 und 1996 eigneten sich FrauenLesben* den Raum kollektiv organisiert und experimentell an. Der Dokumentarfilm „Subjekträume“ (D 2020) handelt vom subkulturellen Ort Pelze Multimedia. Die Entstehung und Produktion eines Dokumentarfilms, so die Regisseurin Katharina Voß und die wissenschaftliche Berater*in Janin Afken, ist durchsetzt mit ethischen Fragen. Beide trafen sich mit der Filmhistorikerin Sarah Dellmann zum Gespräch über (bild-)ethische Aspekte in der Produktion von „Subjekträume“.
The debates about what to do with collections from colonial contexts, and how to deal with them, have developed pace and unexpected momentum in the last three years. This is especially true for artifacts from the African continent, whether they are in museums or collections in Europe, North America, or elsewhere outside the continent. But the same is true under different circumstances, and we do not want to pass over this, for colonial collections and museums in Africa. Let's take a closer look at both in light of recent debates.
The discussions about whether, to whom and when under which circumstances a return, or rather indeed: an unequivocal restitution is appropriate or not, have recently experienced differentiations. This applies already to the preconditions of most restitutions, namely the opening and making accessible of the inventories. While some think that in principle everything should be put online, another opinion maintains that whenever possible, the creators or original holders should have their say beforehand, especially in the case of 'sensitive' objects such as those containing human remains, of a sacred nature, or photographs of contexts of violence. This has also brought other issues into focus – questions about the various forms of rights of disposal, about the forms and functions of museums in Africa, and in Europe and elsewhere.
