Summary/Abstract: An attempt at taking a closer look at the works of Kader Attia – an Algerian-French visual artist dealing with colonialism, decolonization, and phenomena at the intersection of Western and non-Western cultures. The author describes concepts and strategies recurring in many of Attia’s works – including the central notion of repair – and goes on to examine his programme from a broader perspective, treating it as a proposal situated at the intersection of art and anthropological reflection.
