Leopold and Mobutu, 2002<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n

Guy Tillim<\/a><\/h5>\n<\/div><\/section>\n

Guy Tillim spent July to September 2003 photographing traces of the colonial occupation of the Congo by King Leopold II of Belgium and vestiges of more recent plunder under Mobutu Sese Sek.<\/p>\n

Tillim’s images juxtapose historical sites in the Congo and Belgium with contemporary views of the DRC. Adam Hochschild writes: “Rare is the photographer whose work so well captures not only the country before his camera’s lens, but also the country of a hundred or more years ago.”<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>
