These two renderings of material related to the K. Kofi Moyo archive are minimally interventionist. On the wall, an installation of captioned reproductions—relatively small prints with artist interview text set at the lower right—adjusts and repurposes the form of a small photography exhibit at the actual FESTAC ’77 (also depicted in this show) to trace people, places, and other contextual elements. A fuller transcript of Moyo’s reflections accompanies the images as a secondary document, locating the role of the artist’s own memory in (re)making the archive and expanding the trace to encompass a social-historical world extending far beyond the image.
