It shows everyday life in the most varied corners of the African continent, one that does not exist in the coverage provided by Western media. There is nothing spectacular or sensational about this everyday life, but it is always there. It is colorful and also banal, sometimes even contradictory, but it is always precious and genuine. In I love to dress like I am coming from somewhere and I have a place to go, Swiss photographer Flurina Rothenberger shows us a reality far from the usual stereotypes and clichés. Local and immediate, this project was made over the last ten years during the course of both personal and professional trips. Having grown up in West Africa, the artist is well aware of the ambiguities, mores, and specters of this vast continent and its 54 countries. In her sober portrayals of everyday life, whether she is quoting writers, activists, musicians, or economists, she provides an urgently needed contribution to how we view Africa–but not explicitly, and instead subtly. Because the African continent is itself subtle, hard to penetrate, and decidedly complex. Flurina Rothenberger's first artist's book, published in 2004 by Edition Patrick Frey, devotes itself to this complexity. I don't know where I'm going but I'm on the way shows us the everyday life of the West African community in Zurich. It is an everyday life defined by having been torn asunder in various ways, one which rails against the many prejudices. Whether close to home or far away, Flurina Rothenberger dismantles stereotypes by documenting the actual realities she witnesses.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Galerie Écho 119","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39898338492572,"sku":"","price":43.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0258\/7433\/3748\/products\/ROSENBERGER_ILOVETODRESS.jpg?v=1620912764"},{"product_id":"charles-thiefaine-tahrir","title":"CHARLES THIEFAINE - TAHRIR","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCHARLES THIEFAINE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTAHRIR\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e Self-published, 2021\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBook size 18 x 24 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Pages 76 pages\u003cbr\u003e Softcover\u003cbr\u003e Text by Feurat Alani (French \/ Arabic)\u003cbr\u003e Limited edition of 300\u003cbr\u003e ISBN No. 979-10-699-6460-0\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \"November 2019, demonstrators and security forces clash night and day.

Portraits make the face, a part of the body, into object for individual and collective evaluation They seek the composition and unconcealment of the other, which is a form of control by the gaze.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e According to the philosopher Roberto Gambini**, author of “The Indigenous Mirror”, the native Brazilian man “was a mirror in which Jesuits saw the ugly side of their faces. They decided then to break the mirror”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e This is where the Brazilian portrait vibrates: to resemble or to want to someone… With great effort, recorded in photographic images in the country, in hidden studios, portraits were painted by dedicated artists invested in whitening mulattos, creoles, mestizos from various nations , migration and immigration processes which compose the country's population.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThrough these portraits, one of the paradoxes of the formation of the modern Brazilian people is made visible. On the one hand, there is the invitation to confession and to the expression of affects. On the other hand, there is the confinement by refrainment, by appearance control and by the annihilation of emotions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Banzi creates a graphic possibility to these slaves from Nagô, Gege, Mina, Malê, Mandinga, Fula, Tapa, Bornu, Gurunsi origins, (often times portrayed in carte-de-visite cards while placed for sale by their masters). This magical possibility is given by the recovery of their identities in a respectful, sensitive and delicate painting.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Rosely Nakagawa's text\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Galerie Écho 119","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40210663735452,"sku":"","price":66.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0258\/7433\/3748\/products\/TYPES_COUV2.jpg?v=1624020153"},{"product_id":"denisse-ariana-perez-agua","title":"DENISSE ARIANA PEREZ - AGUA (Special edition)","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDENISSE ARIANA PEREZ\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWATER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e Published by Guest Edition, 2021\u003cbr\u003e Book size 20.6 x 27.5 cm\u003cbr\u003e Pages 176 pages\u003cbr\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e Language English\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e + print signed by the artist\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWater\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis the first photobook from Caribbean-born, Barcelona-based photographer Denisse Ariana Pérez.
