Omar Victor Diop & The Anonymous Project, Being There

After the success of Déjà View, where Martin Parr's cult photos formed tasty pairs with amateur images, here is a new collaboration supported by The Anonymous Project. By inviting the photographer Senegalese Omar Victor Diop to "insert" himself into images taken by anonymous white middle class American people of the 50s/60s, Lee Shulman makes a gesture that is as humorous as it is political. A talented self-portraitist Through carefully styled works, Omar Victor Diop thus slips into universe where he was not invited. A delightful idea magnificently executed.
