A World in Common: Contemporary African Photography review – exhilarating, dynamic, profound

A World in Common: Contemporary African Photography featuring photographs by gallery artist Lazhar Mansouri is reviewed by Laura Cumming in The Observer. The exhibition is curated by Osei Bonsu, curator of International Art at the Tate Modern, and will be on view through January 14, 2024.

"Lazhar Mansouri’s black-and-white photographs, taken in his village studio in north Algeria in the 50s and 60s, offer staggering glimpses of Bedouin and Berber sitters, some posing with radios, as well as villagers got up like Marlon Brando."
