Intersections Intersected

The Photography of David Goldblatt

Goldblatt's images were displayed on two separate floors, one of which appeared to be more of a collection of works where as the second floor of the exhibit displayed a single series. The series spans the wall in a single string displaying a recent series of color images displaced with what appears to be past black and white images. Normally staunchly against the mixture of black and white with color images, I found Golblatt's series to work wonderfully together. The romance and nostalgia of a black and white image in comparison with the liveliness of the color images is the perfect dichotomy to strike up discourse of change in his own work and in Africa.
