乐乐, 乐乐呗llbei.com 美国摄影师 Daniel Traub 于 2009 年因为研究生项目来到中国,他的母亲是中国人,对于中国他有一种陌生又亲切的感觉,他通过摄影来理解和记录这个正在巨变中的国家:城市与乡村并存,发展与落后相关。距离有时候很小,一个高尔夫球场可能紧挨着一个垃圾场。 他拍过北京上海的一些地方,后来来到广州,广州越秀区小北路的黑人聚居区让他停留下来,一个城市里其他民族的聚居区多少还是有点少见,他在城市穿梭时,也试图用镜头记录下更多。 广州的小北淘金地区是一个多面的典型,喜欢美食的人可以在这里找到各国美食,阿拉伯餐馆、墨西哥风味、法式餐厅等等应有尽有,更别提越来越普及的日韩料理了。在广州的外国人可以来这里找到家乡风味,价格较高但是风味正宗。不过在区内还有很多没那么光鲜的地方,仅仅满足生活需要,那里是很多来自非洲的人们的活动区。 从 2000 年起,很多批发商从非洲来到中国,除了电视上报道的中非合作的大企业和国家项目,他们也是中国和非洲的贸易往来的见证人。 小北路店铺林立,有中国商人也有非洲商人,各种各样的商品都有,布匹、家用电器、假发等等,还有菜市场。讨价还价的声音也有,还有一些棚铺和中国清真餐馆和一些旅行社。熟悉的话可以迅速在各种小店之间找到性价比最高的店,买到所需的物品。 在 Daniel Traub 即将出版的新书 Little NorthContinue Reading
