Nollywood

So apparently the Nigerian film industry is the second highest grossing in the world, behind Bollywood (and yes before Hollywood). Something I never realised, to be fair I've never watched a Nigerian film to my knowledge, but I'm gona get on it now- any suggestions would be good. This ever expanding African industry became the spotlight for South African photographer Pieter Hugo, who turned his lenses on some of Nollywood's biggest stars. Check out some of the pics below. And if you happen to be a New Yorker get down too Yossi Milo Gallery through April 17 to see the snaps in real life.
