✦内容简介——

伦敦的加纳摄影师詹姆斯·巴诺的开创性工作的简明调查。

加纳摄影师詹姆斯·巴诺(James Barnor, 1929年出生)在两大洲从事了60年的摄影实践，从街头到工作室，从时尚到纪录片，他现在被认为是摄影史上的关键人物。巴诺一生都在阿克拉和伦敦之间穿梭，他的摄影肖像明显地描绘了转型中的社会:加纳从英国手中获得独立，伦敦在摇摆的60年代拥抱自由。他曾说过:“我很幸运能在事情发生的时候活着……当加纳即将独立的时候，加纳独立了，当我来到英国的时候，披头士乐队就在附近。事情发生在六十年代，所以我称自己为幸运吉姆。”

巴诺的照片被描述为“历史的片段，记录了后殖民世界的种族和现代性”，在过去的15年里，他一直是几次大型回顾展的主题。在Photofile系列中，詹姆斯·巴诺(James Barnor)是他多方面作品的概述。

A concise survey of the pioneering work of London-based Ghanaian photographer James Barnor.

With a practice spanning six decades and two continents, ranging from street to studio and fashion to documentary, Ghanaian photographer James Barnor (born 1929) is now recognized as a pivotal figure in the history of photography. Moving between Accra and London throughout his life, Barnor’s photographic portraits visibly map societies in transition: Ghana gaining independence from Britain, and London embracing the freedoms of the swinging sixties. He has said, "I was lucky to be alive when things were happening . . . when Ghana was going to be independent and Ghana became independent, and when I came to England the Beatles were around. Things were happening in the sixties, so I call myself Lucky Jim."

Barnor’s photographs have been described as "slices of history, documenting race and modernity in the post-colonial world," and he has been the subject of several major retrospectives over the last fifteen years. A concise survey in the Photofile series, James Barnor is the perfect overview of his multifaceted work.
