Join the Fowler and Cameroonian art curator and critic Yves Chatap for a deeper dive into the history of photography and studio practice in Cameroon. Using a selection from 110 black & white portraits by Jacques Toussele, Joseph Chila, and Samuel Finlak presented in Photo Cameroon: Studio Portraiture 1970-1990s, Chatap will discuss the relationship between fútbol and masculinity, the social benefits of signaling one’s religious piety, and the meaning of textiles worn by the sitters.
