A journey through Mali...,
By maalik ausar obasi (brooklyn, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Malick Sidibe (Hardcover)
The self entitled photographic exploration presented by Malick Sadibe is a brilliant book. The book begins with a humble, yet elegant invitation (in French) to a party. Neatly juxtaposed with the invite, are several images of the partygoers captured in various moments of laughter and merriment by Msr. Sadibe. The book continues on with various images of life in Mali in the early 1960s and 1970s. Sadibe's superb use of mimimal lighting and candid photos, combined with Magnin's minimal layout provide the reader with a glimpse into the lives of everyday African people. As the journey progresses you can almost feel the gentle, warm sunrays or the sound of 'Soul Makossa' slowly whispering in the late evening breeze. This book is poignant and gentle, a true testimony to the greatness of African photographers such as Msr. Sadibe and Msr. Keita. ESSENTIAL |
