Moving between Accra and London throughout his life, Barnor's photographic portraits visibly map societies in transition: Ghana gaining independence from Britain, and London embracing the freedoms of the swinging sixties. He has said, \"I was lucky to be alive when things were happening . . . when Ghana was going to be independent and Ghana became independent, and when I came to England the Beatles were around. Things were happening in the sixties, so I call myself Lucky Jim.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBarnor's photographs have been described as \"slices of history, documenting race and modernity in the post-colonial world,\" and he has been the subject of several major retrospectives over the last fifteen years.
