Recaptioning Congo offers a new perspective on Congo's colonial history through a nuanced re-examination of historical photographs, including insightful, contemporary 'captions'. Text in English, French and Dutch.
Recaptioning Congo places the colonial Congo''s photography history in new perspectives. Six writers and everyday Congolese urban voices take an African-centered look at imperial archival images and provide them with creative, contemporary and/or literary ''captions''. The book, linked to an exhibition in the photography museum FOMU Antwerp, is based upon the extensive research of the photographic history of colonial Congo (1885 – 1960), conducted by Dr. Sandrine Colard. It contains a wealth of revealing images that highlight the relationship between past and present, Africa and Europe and Belgium and Congo.
