"Paul Strand's photographs illumine our world. While not reporting, they communicate. They form a portrait of Ghana, Ghana as a paradigm of African nations, the "model colony" and the first to gain independence. Seeing with intuition the underlying unity of a continent, and feeling with humanism the underlying character of its peoples, Paul Strand photographed Ghana to show us Africa, to celebrate nations "rejoining their history" after the impositions of colonization. Ghana's art is here - her past, and her people and their politics."--From cover.
