Tutte le aste / Fotografia / Sanlé Sory (1943–2023) - Funki Man - 1974
Stamped and signed. Sory Sanlé is a Burkinabé photographer, born in 1943 in Nianiagara in the Republic of Upper Volta. Ibrahima Sanlé Sory arrived in Bobo-Dioulasso in 1957. Having become a journalist and photographer, he also creates sleeve illustrations for records. He opened his Volta Photo studio in 1962, as his country gained independence. He buys a Rolleiflex 6×6, and begins by taking ID photos and photographs of road accidents for the local police. Rapidly, he gains notoriety in Bobo-Dioulasso, which was then the cultural and economic capital of the former Haute-Volta, and where young Africans “hungry for modernity” come to “have their portrait taken.” Completed between 1960 and 1985, his photographic work “testifies to the happiness of a regained freedom and to a unique social and cultural effervescence.” Exhibitions 2015: African Folk Art, Regional Fund for Contemporary Art in Bordeaux. 2015: Encountering African Photography, Mérignac Media Library. 2018: Retrospective, Art Institute of Chicago. 2020: Tête à Têtes - West African Portraiture from Independence into the 21st Century, David Hill Gallery, London. 2020: Bobo Yéyé, Sanlé Sory, Galerie du Château d’Eau, Toulouse.
