Decolonizing Images - A New History of Photographic Cultures in Egypt

Decolonizing images focuses on Egypt's local visual heritage and continues the urgent process of decolonizing the canon of photography. It presents a new account of the visual cultures produced and exhibited in Egypt by interpreting the camera's ability to conceal as much as it reveals in a complex vision of decolonial difference.
