Biography
Samuel Fosso is one of the most renowned and prodigious young African photographers. His fantastical portraits of different types of people - from African Chiefs to American women - are revealed, upon closer inspection, to be self-portraits. A witty and ironic exploration of self-identity, Fosso’s work has been shown in major global venues such as the Photographers’ Gallery in London and the Guggenheim Museum in New York, and is currently on display at the ‘Street and Studio’ exhibition at Tate Modern in London until 31st August 2008.
