There is an interlinking history of violent European colonialism and the cultural legacy of ethnographic collections in institutions.

A mix of Rock and Roll and Blues are the secret for successful rebellion. When I took my camera to the middle of France where the GM&S factory was threatened by a permanent shut down, I felt like something extraordinary was about to take place. And it did.

Their working-class concert spread across France like wild fire. I sat out of sight, camera in hand, filming like catching fish in a barrel. close
