In 2021, Guillaume Bonn was one of the photographers involved in the project Africa State of Mind: Contemporary Photography Reimagines a Continent, published by Thames & Hudson and by Textuel in its French version in October 2020 under the title Africa 21e siècle. Contemporary African Photography, and exhibited at Rencontres d’Arles in 2021.

Paradise Inc. is a continuation of this work, this time presented in its entirety. For a very long time, the photographer has been exploring the idea of “Africanness”—a psychological space as much as a physical territory, a state of mind as much as a geographical location.

This book is his declaration of love for Africa, and an expression of his fear that it might one day disappear.

Press Reviews

★★★★★

"In a world saturated with images—where beauty is too often divorced from meaning and atrocity reduced to content—Paradise Inc. by Guillaume Bonn offers something far rarer: a work of moral clarity, radical honesty, and necessary discomfort. At once elegy and indictment, memoir and investigation, it is a searing visual and textual reckoning with colonial legacies, environmental collapse, and the politics of representation."

Alessia Glaviano — Head of Global PhotoVogue and Director of the Photo Vogue Festival

"Natural boundaries: animals and humans clash in Kenya. Guillaume Bonn’s photographs, part of a 20-year project to document the growing clash between animals and humans in Kenya, Somalia, Botswana and South Africa, tell a different story."

Steve Bloomfield — The Observer

★★★★★

"A new book’s beguiling photographs are a wilderness wake-up call. For three decades, photographer Guillaume Bonn has traversed East Africa, documenting how civilization’s quintuple threats of modernity, development, population growth, armed conflict, and climate change have imperiled the region’s wildlife, habitats, and human communities. Some of his most distinctive pictures are those depicting camouflage-clad local rangers from game reserves, conservancies, and elsewhere, who risk their lives to combat criminal rings of poachers seeking the valuable horns and tusks of rhinos and elephants."

David Friend — Vanity Fair
