SUMMARY:Unveiling the Shadows of the Past: J.K. Bruce-Vanderpuije – the hidden icon of photography in Africa
DESCRIPTION:The first gallery show to be dedicated to the work of the noted Ghanaian photographer’s seminal works\, telling the story of Ghanaian modern history through the lens of a local and one which captures the nation in the throes of British colonial rule yet on the cusp of independence. As the gallery note says\, “The power behind Bruce-Vanderpuije’s images lies in the pride and determination of each sitter captured during a period in which two worlds merge into one: Ghanaian traditional heritage and western style modernity”. \nCurated by Ethiopian photographer Aida Muluneh\, the show will have more than two dozen previously unseen black-and-white images by Bruce-Vanderpuije\, depicting life in Ghana in the 1920s and 30s and offering insight into the formation of an independent\, 20th-century Ghanaian social and political identity. \nTo 20 February. \nThe opening evening (12 January\, 6.30-8pm) features a discussion between curator Aïda Muluneh and J.K. Bruce-Vanderpuije’s granddaughter Kate Tamakloe covering the photograph’s career and the importance of archiving and photography on the African continent from the 1920s to the present day. \nAbove: J.K.
