DEEDS CALENDAR: Samuel Fosso: Black Pope. Works 1975 – 2017 – KINDL – Center for Contemporary Art | until 16.02.2025
Samuel Fosso is one of the best-known photographic artists on the African continent. In his theatrical self-portraits, he embodies very heterogeneous characters and adapts iconic images of historical figures. In his works, he reveals social codes of body, clothing and accessories as well as those of pose and facial expression; at the same time, he playfully thwarts attributions of gender, ethnic origin and social class. The solo exhibition at the KINDL shows a selection of Fosso’s works from the 1970s to the present day. The exhibition begins on September 15, 2024 and ends on February 16, 2025.
