Book Synopsis
Following Aperture’s acclaimed city issues centered around photography in Delhi, Mexico City, Los Angeles, New York, Tokyo, and São Paulo, the magazine’s Fall edition considers Accra as a site of vivid photographic styles connected to visual culture in Ghana and West Africa. From the pioneering midcentury studio photography and photojournalism of James Barnor to the sensitive and experimental work of Eric Gyamfi, Accra is at the center of dialogues around Pan-Africanism and is a point of return for the African Diaspora. The Accra issue, edited in collaboration with Lyle Ashton Harris and Nii Obodai, may include contributions from Ekow Eshun, John Akomfrah, David Adjaye, Taiye Selasi, Lloyd Foster, Anakwa Dwamena, and Rénee Mussai.
