The Rencontres d’Arles presents “James Barnor: Stories. Pictures from the Archive (1947-1987),” an exhibition featuring a selection of previously unseen works by the Ghanaian photographer, on view at LUMA through September 25. This first retrospective of Barnor in France spans his travels from London to Accra, from the end of the colonial era to the early ‘90s, and from studio portraits to press commissions. The works will be enriched by archival documents and vintage prints which place Barnor within the context of world photography, and this portfolio as a whole will become part of the LUMA Foundation’s collection after the exhibition, as part of its Living Archives Programme.
