Diptyk #37

Art Paris - Africa Under the Vaulted Ceiling of the Grand Palais

Who tells African stories, and who are they meant for? Diptyk #37 explores the question of perspective throughout the issue. It’s a theme that runs through its major feature on street photography in Morocco, from Yoriyas to Mehdy Mariouch. This February–March 2017 issue also explores the erotic freedom of Soufiane Ababri, as described by Abdellah Taïa. It features a portfolio by Mohau Modisakeng on the cover and covers Africa’s presence at Art Paris under the nave of the Grand Palais.
