Ethiopian Shield Pillaged by British to Be Repatriated
A 19th-century Maqdala shield pillaged in Ethiopia during the 1868 Battle of Maqdala will be repatriated in November, and displayed at the National Museum of Ethiopia in Addis Ababa, reports The Art Newspaper. The Ethiopian government identified the shield as a British army-looted treasure after seeing it come up in an auction, and requested it be restituted from the UK. After a short loan for an exhibit at Ohio’s Toledo Museum of Art ending this month, that is precisely what will happen. The shield “is a symbol of Ethiopia’s history and resilience,” said Ermias Sahle Selassi, grandson of Emperor Haile Selassie and founder of the Royal Ethiopian Trust that negotiated the restitution. [NPR]On Thursday, Marina Abramovic, 77, will open her first solo exhibition in China, and her largest to date, at Shanghai’s Modern Art Museum.

Musical journey: lessons begin after piano finally arrives in Ethiopia
Pupils at the Homosha school in Benishangul-Gumuz state now have their teaching piano after an arduous journey reminiscent of that of Yifrashewa’s own first instrument almost 30 years before. The piano finally reached the school after an 11-hour journey by van. The foundation’s head of education in Ethiopia, also a musician, contacted one of the few piano tuners in Ethiopia, who agreed to be flown in to restore the instrument’s sound after the journey. View image in fullscreen Homosha provides free education for girls in an area where fewer than half of girls attend secondary school. This piano had a less eventful journey, with Yifrashewa’s fame bringing many sponsors who helped deliver it.

Ethiopian parliament replaced by Foreign Affairs minister after falling out with Prime Minister
BBCADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia – Ethiopia’s parliament has approved the appointment of a new president to replace the country’s first female head of state, Sahle-Work Zewde. Taye Astike Selassie, foreign minister since February, has taken up the largely ceremonial role. In Ethiopia, political power lies with the prime minister – currently Abiy Ahmed. The prime minister’s backing of her initial appointment in 2018 was hailed as a breakthrough for gender equality in Ethiopian politics. The replacement of Sahle-Work means that Tanzania’s President Samia Suluhu Hassan is currently Africa’s only female head of state.

Maqdala shield to be repatriated to Ethiopia
A 19th-century Ethiopian shield pillaged by the British during the 1868 Battle of Maqdala will be repatriated in November, after a brief stint on display at Ohio’s Toledo Museum of Art (until 27 October). The shield was withdrawn from auction in February, when the Ethiopian government identified it as loot and requested it be restituted from the UK. Many of these objects remain in museums in the UK, although several of them have been repatriated in recent years. The leather-and-silver shield is engraved with "Magdala 13th April 1868”, marking the date of the battle during which it was looted. In Toledo, the shield briefly joins the last leg of the travelling exhibition Ethiopia at the Crossroads.
