'Flashback': An Exhibition of Photographs by Tony FigueiraSaturday, 21 March marks the 30th anniversary of Namibia's independence from South Africa. By showcasing some of legendary photographer Tony Figueira's historical and more contemporary photographs, this exhibition provides a glimpse into the past and demands a moment of reflection. “As with any historic photography collection, these images are fascinating because they create a time capsule.” Images of protest as well as play create an interesting juxtaposition that combine to reject the notion that it is only through images of abjection and poverty that we can come to understand adversity and pain. A 30th birthday is surely a time for celebration, just as much as it is a time to reinvigorate and rekindle the spirit of protest.MICHAEL KAYUNDE
