"Volta Photo" is a collection of works by Sanre Sory, a photographer from Burkina Foso, a small country with a population of 20 million in West Africa. Although the absolute number is still small, photographers from "Africa" and collections of works with African motifs have attracted a lot of attention in recent years. Born in 1943, Sory was a well-known local studio photographer who began his career as a photographer in earnest after 1960 and founded his own studio. However, although he was an unknown artist in the world without the publication of a gallery or a collection of works, an exhibition was held at the Yossi Milo gallery in New York from the latter half of the 2010s, and a collection of works was published by Steidl led by Gerhard Steidl. Then, the name spread all over the world. Most recently, Stanely Baker, who has been a hot topic in publishing a collection of high-quality works, released "Peuple de la Nuit", which was published in the UK in 2017, and his studio in the 70's and 80's. This book is composed of portraits of young people taken in.
