'Frontier: Garamba National Park' explores those who try to control nature – either to protect it, consume it, or both. Set in the far northeast of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Garamba is an archetypal frontier where conservation, violence and competing claims to power intersect. Combining photographs by Leonard Pongo (BE/CD) with essays and archival work by Kristof Titeca (BE) and Patrick Edmond (GB), the book brings together contemporary images and historical archives to reveal the contested relationship between people, wildlife and power in one of Africa’s most complex protected landscapes.
