{"product_id":"lusaka-street","title":"Lusaka Street By Phiri, Alick","description":"Lusaka Street is an exploration of Zambia’s photographic past through the eyes of Zambian image-maker Alick Phiri. One of the few surviving black photographers that had access to the medium from the 1960s through the 1990s in Lusaka – a time when the use of the camera was restricted in the country – Phiri was trained at Lusaka’s Photo Art Studios before opening his own studio in Kanyama, making photography an integral part of his life. His unseen before photographic archive provides a rare insight into the everyday experience of people in the city. Even more importantly, his work is a document of the process of self-determination and self-representation of black Zambians at the time, recounted through situational portraits taken in the subject''s domestic sphere. A testament to the relevance of lens-based media within Zambia’s geographical, historical and social context, a tool for reimagining the past and reading the present.","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57836983484798,"sku":"NW9789464665154","price":28.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-eu\/products\/lusaka-street","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
