From Chicago Fire, a photo essay on gun violence in Chicago, published in the 2013 photo issue of The Fader magazine.
It’s great to see a magazine like The Fader commissioning and publishing work like this. Click through to see the rest of the series and the “extended cuts.”

I’m compiling a list of all the Art and Photo Tumblrs out there that are worth following. I’d really appreciate any reblogs of this post, the more people we have contributing to the list the better!
I’m looking for Tumblrs that feature works by different artists and give credit to the original creators. Do not submit Tumblrs that feature work by just one person (ie. portfolio sites) or Tumblrs that do not give credit to any work.
Submit your Tumblr and see the most up to date list: HERE.

J. D. ‘Okhai Ojeikere’s “Hairstyles”
“In embarking on the multi-year ‘Hairstyles’ series, Ojeikere set for himself a recuperative task, a form of salvage visual ethnography, as he was concerned about the disappearance of these hairstyles, threatened by the ever-lurking forces of westernization (manifest in straight-hair wigs and permed hair). His travels to different parts of Nigeria, but also his collaboration with several hairstylists in Lagos and elsewhere, to photograph women wearing fashionably plaited and braided hair constituted a form of fieldwork in the ethnographic sense, for he also often collected the names and social discourses associated with particular hair designs.”
by Chika Okeke-Agulu from the essay “J.D. ‘Okhai Ojeikere’s Nigerian Hairstyles”
in Contemporary African Photography from the Walther Collection, Events of the Self: Portraiture and Social Identity
