Celebrate the opening of Samuel Fosso: Affirmative Acts at Art on Hulfish. Born in 1962 and currently working in the Central African Republic, Samuel Fosso is one of the most renowned contemporary artists based in Africa today. This exhibition will focus on key aspects of Fosso’s work as an artist and a photographer, underscoring his practice as an image-maker, commentator, Africanist, and global citizen. Though Fosso is one of the best-known photographers from the African continent on the international scene, this will be the first museum survey of his work in the United States. Learn more about the art on view from the exhibition’s curator, Princeton Professor Chika Okeke-Agulu, a specialist in African and African Diaspora art history and theory—together with Silma Berrada, Lawrence Chamunorwa, Maia Julis, and Iheanyi Onwuegbucha, students from his fall 2021 course “Post-1945 African Photography.”
