Samuel Fosso

La femme Americaine liberee 1997 Samuel Fosso

Meet me in Ataxia, Baby (a wonderful blog that has sadly become very sporadic due to graduate school) posted on Samuel Fosso a young photographer from the Central African Republic who opened his studio at age 13 and started taking self portraits at 16. Read an interview with the director of a BBC documentary on Fosso here. I want to find more of his work but haven't been successful.

Absolutely compelling.
