A MAGAZINE SYNTHESIS CURATED FOR YOUSSOUF FOFANA

Description: Synthesis Curated For Youssouf Fofana A Publisher is pleased to announce Synthesis Curated for Youssouf Fofana, a project supported by Jordan Brand that will launch ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympics. An exploration of the African diaspora — in particular creatives connected to Senegal and West Africa (where Fofana finds his roots) — in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, with a look at how sport and shared culture can create community. From exploring the inter-African football matches at Square Leon, where aunties are selling their craft and foods to onlookers, to the exploration of Senegalese handcraft, textile and embroidery, to new takes on French classic cuisine, the issue explores the ideas around a synthesis of French identity, where the children of immigrants have created their own lines of creative expression that call on their blended heritage of two homes — in Paris and from the continent. The 18th represents for Fofana the new — and maybe real — France; Design and art movements in and around the base of Montmartre are contextualised historically, as the area has been for over a century the locale of many of Paris’ creative community. Fofana calls upon many creatives and collaborators and who have spent time in and around the Goutte D’Or neighbourhood, including artists, photographers, designers, musicians, athletes, chefs, historians and entrepreneurs.
