Zanele Muholi : Somnyama Ngonyama, Hail the Dark Lioness

Zanele Muholi: Somnyama Ngonyama, Hail the Dark Lioness features over ninety of Muholi"s evocative self-portraits, each image drafted from material props in Muholi"s immediate environment. These portraits reflect the journey, self-image, and possibilities of a black woman in today"s global society. With more than twenty written contributions from curators, poets, and authors, alongside luxurious tritone reproductions of Muholi"s images, this title is as much a manifesto of resistance as it is an autobiographical, artistic statement.
