Amsterdam 25.05.16 | Africadelic and the state of the continent

An amazing list of creatives is giving acte de présence at the first edition of 'Africadelic' on Wednesday May 25, 2016 in Paradiso, Amsterdam. If you happen to be in town, do come and meet photographer Lard Buurman, who will be presenting the cities from his 'Africa Junctions' series. Listen to the experts of the Analog Africa label playing the releases of funky and psychedelic music from the 60's and 70's. Watch filmmaker Ivan Barbarosa's new Typhoon clip. And there's more: World Press Photo Micha Bruinvels about Instagram hit 'Everyday Africa,' africanah.org's Rob Perrée about his contemporary art platform and IDLeaks challenging the one-dimensional stereotypes in development aid campaigns.

Exclusive sneak preview of ZAM Photo Editions with Zanele Muholi

The African Students United will present a State of the Continent and, last but not least, ZAM will present a 'sneak preview' of the soon to be launched online Photo Editions.

All this will be followed by a concert celebrating international Africa Day with Richard Bona & Mandekan Cuba (Cameroon), Paulo Flores (Angola) and more.

The Africadelic 'State of the Continent' talk show starts at 6h30 PM, the concert at 8 PM. Tickets are 25 euro and they'll give you access to both.
