Note(s) : Accompanied by some of his lesser-known photographs, this distilled dialogue is drawn
directly from the recordings of a roving conversation with David Goldblatt three months
before his death in June 2018. Goldblatt was born in Randfontein - a mining town on
the Witwatersrand gold reef - in 1930, the grandson of Lithuanian-Jewish migrants
who settled in South Africa after escaping persecution in Europe. After the death
of his father in 1962, Goldblatt sold the family clothing business to become a full-time
photographer. Describing himself as 'a self-appointed observer and critic of the society
into which I was born,' he photographed the people, landscapes and structures of South
Africa under apartheid and its persistent aftermath. In this candid conversation with
writer Alexandra Dodd, Goldblatt shares his views about land and landscape, the dangerous
lure of repetition in portrait photography, Johannesburg, the solipsism of life as
a photographer, staying sharp, his visceral intolerance of censorship, his abiding
interest in structures and his observation of instances of dominion under democracy,
among other key themes
