American female photographer Jackie Nickerson (1960-)'s photo book "Afrika". Jackie Nickerson has a background as a fashion photographer and is also known for document photography in Africa. In 2014, I photographed a Liberia worker who suffered from Ebola, and the photograph was the first woman to appear on the cover of Time magazine. In recent years, he has been active in a wide range of fields from fashion to documentary, such as shooting the popular brand "Yeezy" by hip-hop MC / music producer Kanye West. This book is Jackie's 1st photo book and is widely known as the English title "Farm", but this book is the German version. It consists of photographs taken in southern Africa (Zimbabwe, Malawi, South Africa) from 1997 to 2000, many of which are devoted to portraits of black workers. Their appearance is torn and frayed, but each one has been sublimated into a unique styling (like high fashion), and while facing the harsh reality, it shows the appearance of living uniquely and robustly.
