Congo Kinshasa
'Regarding Kinshasa, our only contact, for a very long time now, is expressed in terms of troubles and misfortune, corruption and wars, Mobutu’s dictatorship or Kabila’s assassination. It is nonetheless in spite, or because of, these genuine tribulations, that the city is probably the most creative one on the African continent. [...]'
'Of the thousand music groups and the thousands of craftspeople, of the hundreds of painters and sculptors, actors, poets and writers, and as many boxers, fighters, wrestlers and football players, I will preserve the frustrated memory of merely brushing the surface of the genius of this immense African city and bringing back only a minuscule testimony.'
