Future Remembrance, Photography and Image Arts in Ghana (1998)

Overview

In the small fishing towns of Ghana, the photographer's studio is the place to go. To get "snapped" - wearing the latest fashion, or posing with a long lost friend. Carrying the tools of your trade. For "future remembrance", to show how that dress was so becoming, how durable the friednship, how you made your living. So that everybody will remember you.

Assan, Azey, Wofa & Louis Ankra and Alfred Six. Research funding from the German Research Fondation DFG.
