Flamboya (First edition)
Photographs: Viviane Sassen
Text: Moses Isegawa & Edo Dijksterhuis
Publisher: Contrasto
96 pages
Pictures: 46
Year: 2008
Comments: Hardcover, 310 x 245 mm. First edition, 2008. Text in English. Color photographs. Beautifully designed by Syb. Kept in very good condition.
Shot in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Zambia and Ghana, the ‘Flamboya’ photographs stand as paradigmatic for Sassen’s new way of looking at Africa –one devoid of sentimentality and that through poetical metaphors acknowledges the challenges and drawbacks of its complex reality.
Without giving up figurative means, Sassen went on developing a visual language that questions the stereotypes about Africa and ethnic otherness.
Thanks to Syb's design, some pages are cut halfway, giving new visions and meanings to Sassen's powerful images.
