With a population of nearly seventeen million, Lagos, the former
capital of Nigeria, is not only the largest city in Africa but also
one of the most densely populated cities in the world. Full of
contrasts and contradictions: the enormous increase in population
leads to challenges in infrastructure and yet rapid advancements in
creative industries. A silent social reawakening is emerging with
photography, technology, and new media playing significant
roles.The first and, to date, only international art festival of
photography in Nigeria, LagosPhoto Festival was initiated in 2010
in this richly vibrant center. A platform on which the development
of contemporary photography from Africa and a wider community is
established and fostered.As testified to by the images, their
African stories are bubbling over with vitality, a zest for life,
and the dynamics that deny those proponents of Afropessimism,
clearly underscoring a sense for the continent's progress.
Festival: LagosPhoto Festival, Lagos 17.10.-21.11.2015
