We are proud to announce the winner of this year's Foam Paul Huf Award: Lebohang Kganye (SA) 🎉⁠
Kganye’s work explores themes of personal history and ancestry whilst resonating with the history of South Africa and apartheid. “[...] Lebohang Kganye’s work impressed us for its clarity of vision, complexity and ambition. Spanning photography, collage, film, installation and sculpture, Kganye’s performative and visually sophisticated work draws on both family and collective archives to shed light on the fabricated nature of history and memory.'' - Foam Paul Huf Award jury.⁠
⁠
✨ Kganye joins the list of previous Foam Paul Huf Award winners such as Pieter Hugo, Daisuke Yokota and Alex Prager. Part of the prize is a solo exhibition at Foam.⁠⁠

In addition, the jury is giving an honourable mention to Sabelo Mlangeni (SA), co-founding member of Umhlabathi Collective as a first runner up.
