Johannesburg’s long-awaited Inside Out Centre for the Arts, founded by the American expat photographer Roger Ballen, opened to the public last March. Its inaugural exhibition, “End of the Game,” explores the colonialist-led destruction of South Africa’s native wildlife. Ballen, who has dedicated his long and celebrated career to honoring the physical land of his chosen home, intends to focus the Centre’s exhibitions and educational programs around “powerful, thought-provoking themes related to the African continent.” The story told in “End of the Game” comes to viewers through a combination of art and documentary-style archival content. —Lucy Horowitz
