Friday's Fascinating Fotographs from Fieldwork


The king Okyenhene Amoatia Ofori Panin II surrounded by palace officials, receiving visitors and well-wishers during a ‘traditional’ festival (Kyebi/Ghana, 2002)

"Cherchez le Chercheur" No. VIII

Another shot from ‘the field’ inviting you to search for the researcher. He is attending this ceremonial and royal protocol in which the ‘traditionalists’ from the king’s palace and the visitors are bound. But is he really involved? Or just a spectator more or less admitted to the event? How much of what is going on does he actually grasp? At least, the photographic document – viewed back home – can serve the researcher as a source of multi-facetted information, as a mnemonic aid proper.
