The first overview volume on the work of Samuel FOSSO. From self-portraits from the 1970s to his most recent series 'Tati' & 'African Spirits', this photo book shows his departure from the West African studio photography of a Seydou KEITA or Malick SIDIBÉ

The volume 'Seydou Keita. African photographer' contains over 200 portraits, capturing the personalities of his subjects. He utilized a wide variety of props to further this goal. What comes across most clearly in these photos is the beauty of the people.

In his new photo volume 'Solus. Vol.1', Pieter HUGO reflects on aesthetic values in the fashion industry. In portraits of models cast on the street, he examines the commercialization of youth and the paradox of striving for both otherness AND conformity.
