    The South African photographer David Goldblatt developed a particular way to approach everyday life under the Apartheid system, which ruled South Africa between 1948-1991. In this essay two of Goldblatt’s daily life photographs are observed in which he distances himself from the aesthetic used by the “Struggle Photography”. Thus, with an interplay between visibility/invisibility he shows the impact of this system interwoven in the daily life of South African citizens.O fotógrafo sul-africano David Goldblatt desenvolveu nos seus anos de prática fotográfica uma forma particular de abordar a vida quotidiana sob o sistema do Apartheid que governou a África do Sul entre os anos 1948-1991. Neste ensaio são observados dois exemplos de fotografias da vida cotidiana em que Goldblatt se distancia da estética utilizada pela “Fotografia de Luta” e com uma interação entre visibilidade/invisibilidade mostra o impacto deste sistema entrelaçado na vida cotidiana dos cidadãos sul-africanos.El fotógrafo sudafricano David Goldblatt desarrolló en sus años de práctica fotográfica una manera particular de abordar la vida diaria bajo el sistema del Apartheid que rigió en Sudáfrica entre los años 1948-1991.

    At home in Johannesburg? Rethinking cosmopolitanism through TJ/Double Negative, the joint project between David Goldblatt and Ivan Vladislavić

    This article examines the cosmopolitan character of TJ/ Double Negative (2010) and argues that the prize-winning pho- tography book, co-produced by the South African photographer David Goldblatt and writer and editor Ivan Vladislavić, is both a symptomatic expression of uneven development and a self- conscious interrogation of that unevenness. e book comprises two parts: Goldblatt’s iconic photographic series, TJ: Johannesburg Photographs 1948–2010, and Vladislavić’s novel Double Negative, a meta ction that refracts the story of modern Johannesburg along with Goldblatt’s career and the concomitant genre evolu- tion of South African photojournalism from local “documentary” to world-renowned “art,” as TJ reconstructs it. is experiment in interdiscursivity is signi cant not simply for being the rst of its kind—“a unique event in publishing” (“TJ & Double Negative”), as the publisher, Contrasto, declares in its marketing blurb—but also because through this collaborative yet multi-modal venture a new mode of critical cosmopolitanism in world-literature might emerge

    The photograph and the ticket: representations of travel in the works of David Goldblatt, Usha Seejarim and Carouschka Streijffert

    ABSTRACT The major theme of this research investigates artists' representations of journeys; the ritual activity of people's daily journeys along fixed routes, and long distance travel. Through specific projects by David Goldblatt, Usha Seejarim and Carouschka Streijffert, the differences between the experience of actual journeys and the visual codes and conventions used to represent these journeys in artwork is interrogated. In particular, this research is concerned with the presence and absence of the body within these represenations of journeys, focussing on how journeys construct otherness. These concerns have been linked to my own practical work. The Putco bus service also appears in all three artists' works. Through qualitative research, this report shows how ordinary subject matter has been used by the three identified artists to produce interesting work

    This article examines the cosmopolitan character of TJ/Double Negative (2010) and argues that the prize-winning photography book, co-produced by the South African photographer David Goldblatt and writer and editor Ivan Vladislavić, is both a symptomatic expression of uneven development and a self-conscious interrogation of that unevenness. The book comprises two ‘parts’: Goldblatt’s iconic photographic series, TJ: Johannesburg Photographs 1948-2010, and Vladislavić’s novel Double Negative, a metafiction that refracts the story of modern Johannesburg – but also of Goldblatt’s career and the concomitant genre evolution of South African photojournalism from local ‘documentary’ to world-renowned ‘art’ – as it is reconstructed in TJ.  This experiment in interdiscursivity is significant not simply for being the first of its kind – ‘a unique event in publishing’, as the publisher contrasto declares in its marketing blurb - but rather because through this collaborative but also multi-modal venture a new mode of critical cosmopolitanism in world-literature might be discerned
