After Photojournalism. What’s next?
Lecture by David Goldblatt. Discussion

Born in Randfontein in 1930, in 1948 David Goldblatt attempted to become a magazine photographer, a field then almost unknown in South Africa.

Gradually he built up a professional practice mainly in the field of photo-journalism, specialising in work outside the studio photographing for magazines, corporations, advertising agencies and institutions. Recognizing the need for a facility to teach visual literacy and photographic skills particularly to people disadvantaged by apartheid, he founded the Market Photo Workshop in 1989. He regards himself as an unlicenced, self-appointed observer and critic of South African society which he continues to explore with the camera.
