Rua de Araújo, “Pão Nosso de Cada Noite” (Our Nightly Bread)
Photographs by Mozambican Photojournalist Ricardo Rangel. Rua de Araújo, the red light district, attracted South Africans and Rhodesians escaping their puritanical regimes at home.
Born in Maputo, Rangel was of African, European and Chinese descent and raised by his African grandmother in the impoverished suburbs surrounding Maputo. Rangel joined with four other Mozambican journalists in 1970 to found a weekly magazine called Tempo, which in effect acted as the only publication in opposition to Portuguese rule. Many of Rangel’s colonial era photographs were banned or destroyed by Portuguese government censors, and could not be published or exhibited until Mozambique's independence in 1975.
“Social injustices—I had to denounce them and the most damning denunciation is visual.”

Afrofuturism from Nigerian photographer, filmmaker and stylist Daniel Obasi …
“My goal as an artist is to use my work as activism. That’s always the most important thing. I live in Nigeria, these are my experiences, my collaborators and the people I work with are my friends. At the very root of all we do, you can see the themes and the ideas that we’re exploring are based on problems and issues we’re dealing with as a society or things that we want to see a change in.”

I had the pleasure of knowing Paul when he attended ICP.
“I started buying African photo books, with the idea of sharing them with young photographers back home, but as my collection grew, it dawned on me that I could create a library dedicated to photography and visual education, so I started reaching out to booksellers for donations. I also received donations from private galleries and collectors,” says Ninson.
