Ricardo Rangel and the Next Generation
The selection of photos in Iluminando Vidas is representative of Mozambican photography. Using Ricardo Rangel's works as a starting point, it presents photographs by Kok Nam (born in 1939) and thirteen younger photographs ('pupils'), who learned their trade during courses at the CFF or on the job from Ricardo Rangel or Kok Nam. At the start of his career, Kok Nam worked for Rangel as a photojournalist and later became one of the most important photographers in the country.
