Abdourahmane Sakaly comes from a merchant family of Saint-Louis, Senegal, coming from Morocco. He moves at age 20 in Bamako. Introduced to photography in his youth by one of the fathers of Senegalese photography Me\u00efssa Gaye (1892-1982), he decided to open his studio in Medina Coura, facing one of the major markets of the Sudanese (now Malian) capital.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Without means, with makeshift equipment, developing films in cans, he photographs, however, with a real personality and quickly became the first African studio of Bamako in the years 1960-1970.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The latter, well organized with its lounge, its make-up room, the other for shoting and the laboratory, photography offers him a comfortable life.<\/p>\n
