"This book is much more than just a discourse on photography in the land of
apartheid. And it goes well beyond sophisticated debate on the artistic merits
of images. While keeping the lens trained on the evolution of photography it
plunges the reader into a sharp and evocative
socio-cultural
history of a
country in deep conflict.
"-Albie
Sachs
Photography is often believed to 'witness' history or 'reflect' society, but such
perspectives fail to account for the complex ways in which photographs get
made and seen, and the variety of motivations and social and political factors
that shape the vision of the world that photographs provide. This book
develops a critical historical method for engaging with photographs of South
Africa during the apartheid period. The author looks closely at the photographs
in their original contexts and their relationship to the politics of the time, listens
to the voices of the photographers to try and understand how they viewed the
work they were doing, and examines the place of photography in a post-
apartheid era.
Based on interviews with photographers, editors and curators, and through the
analysis of photographs held in collections and displayed in museums, this
research addresses the significance of photography in South Africa during the
second half of the twentieth century.
Darren Newbury is Professor of Photography at Birmingham City University
and editor of the international journal Visual Studies. |
