The second edition of The Africa Center’s “Points of Resonance: Contemporary Photography in Africa” exhibition is underway in New York.
Photography works of 12 African artists from around the continent and in the diaspora is on view until January. The exhibition, curated by Cairo-based artists Heba Farid and Zein Khalifa, and independent curator Sarah Sarofim, is hosting works by artists from South Africa, Ethiopia and Eritrea among others.
The organizers say the exhibitors’ works “explore the effects of colonialism, migration and changing identities”, while deconstructing narratives by retelling stories across time and space. The works also investigate the past, and question memory while imagining future possibilities.
