| Publisher Description: The U.S.-based photographer Fran ois Deschamps travelled to Mali on a Fulbright in 2010 and immersed himself in the urban and rural matrix that gave rise a compelling post-colonial visual identity. Working in collaboration with Malian artists and craftsmen, Deschamps took a series of stunning color photographs that capture Mali's diversity and cultural richness. With more than 100 photographs, this catalogue accompanies an exhibition at the Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art. These portraits incorporate the subjectivity of the sitters through their selection of backgrounds, frames, and props, a process that follows in the footsteps of the Malian innovators. This fully illustrated book edition is designed by Deschamps. |
