David Goldblatt
A few weeks ago I got a chance to meet David Goldblatt. He is a photographer from South Africa and has documented the history of South Africa for decades... He is a great guy, very humble about his work and the power it holds. He has an exhibit going on at the University Museum of Contemporary Art titled "Intersections Intersected: The Photography of David Goldblatt." It contains many images, including diptychs of 'before and after' apartheid images. His work is truly moving. David has a way with the camera that people like myself only wish to develop... He can take multiple photographs of the same subject and make them all feel completely different. He is probably the most recognized photographer from S.A. and I am thankful to have met him. I encourage you to look into his work and go check it out if you are in the Amherst area! Here is some more of his work.




Thanks for tuning in...
Jose
