SAMUEL FOSSO: MUSEUM DER MODERNE SALZBURG

22 October 2022 - 10 April 2023

The Generali Foundation at Museum der Moderne Salzburg organizes Samuel Fosso's first personal exhibition in Austria. 

From the mid-1970s onwards, Fosso has given a new twist to West Africa's long-standing traditions of studio photography by developing and successively refining an individual form of explicitly theatrical self-portraiture. These self-portraits are based on a play with roles, identities, and media images and on the embodiment of selected, heterogeneous characters that are of both personal and political significance.
