A bold and dynamic survey of contemporary street photography from across Africa, featuring leading image makers shaping a vibrant and exciting genre.
Energetic, colourful, experimental: street photography across Africa has a well-established and complex history, and its own unique dynamic. From classic compositions of architecture, people and movement, to street-style portraits and photographs of youth culture, music and dance - the street becomes a stage. It's about identity, personality and storytelling: friends skateboarding, a chance encounter, the hustle and bustle of megacities.
Selected and introduced by acclaimed curators of photography, Street Photography Africa presents the work of over thirty of the continent's most exciting practitioners, interleaved with discussions of the locations, themes and communities that underpin Africa's contemporary photography scene.
