Nollywood — Pieter Hugo, Special Edition (Signed + C print) , 2009

This special edition of Nollywood by Pieter Hugo, published by Prestel in 2009, is part of the Darwin Bookshop for its brutal, theatrical clarity in documenting Africa’s second-largest film industry—and the imagined worlds it generates. Produced in Nigeria in collaboration with local actors and communities, Hugo’s staged portraits re-enact the hallucinatory iconography of Nollywood cinema: ritual killings, zombie brides, corrupt officials, spirits caught mid-exorcism.
