Special Presentation by: Curators from the Portland Museum of Art sharing information of the upcoming exhibition
Outside the Frame: Todd Webb in Africa
This exhibition presents a recently recovered photographic series made by American documentary photographer Todd Webb in 1958.
Commissioned by the United Nations to document emerging industries and technologies in Ghana, Kenya, Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia), Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), Somalia, Sudan, Togo, and Tanganyika and Zanzibar (both now Tanzania). Webb’s photographs present an outsider’s view onto the social, political, and cultural dynamics on the continent at a critical period between colonialism and independence. Resisting stereotypical or exoticizing frameworks, Webb created images of countries on the cusp of change. To learn more about the exhibit go to: https://www.portlandmuseum.org/toddwebb
