Affectionately called ‘Lucky Jim’, James Barnor radiates optimism. At 92, he swears by a regimen of maintaining good relationships and listening to music for his “ever young” outlook. While photographing Ghana’s high society, comedians, yogis and aspiring musicians, Barnor managed bands and hosted concerts until dawn at his studio in Jamestown, Accra.
We came together on 11 September for belated birthday celebrations in honour of the artist with an acoustic tribute to the Ghanaian band and cultural troupe Fɛɛ Hii.
