Book The Transported of KwaNdebele

Download or read book The Transported of KwaNdebele written by and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After On the Mines, The Transported of KwaNdebele is the second of David Goldblatt's books to be redesigned and expanded by the artist for Steidl Publishers. Dating originally from 1989, it talks about the workers of an apartheid tribal homeland for blacks, KwaNdebele, which has no industry, very few opportunities for jobs and is a long way from the nearest industrial-commercial activity of white-controlled Pretoria. Workers from KwaNdebele catch buses in the very early morning, some as early as 2:45 am, in order to be at their workplaces in Pretoria by 7:00. At the end of the day they repeat the journey in the other direction, to get home at between 8 and 10 pm. Goldblatt takes us on their bone-jarring journeys through the night, which is a metaphor for their arduous struggle toward freedom itself. In photographs devoid of sentimentality and artifice, the grim determination of these people to survive and overcome emerges in almost heroic terms. Brenda Goldblatt, filmmaker and writer, interviewed some of the bus-riding workers who endured not only these journeys but a civil war precipitated by the apartheid government's attempt to foist a kind of independence on KwaNdebele--a condition which would have made the workers foreigners in the land of their birth, South Africa, and thus deprived them of their limited right to work there. Interviews with contemporary (2012) bus-riders fill out the account. Phillip van Niekerk, former editor of the Mail & Guardian, provides an essay on KwaNdebele, its place in the logic of grand apartheid and its half-life in post-apartheid South Africa.

Book Photography in the Third Reich  Art  Physiognomy and Propaganda

Download or read book Photography in the Third Reich Art Physiognomy and Propaganda written by Christopher Webster and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2021-01-07 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lucid and comprehensive collection of essays by an international group of scholars constitutes a photo-historical survey of select photographers who embraced National Socialism during the Third Reich. These photographers developed and implemented physiognomic and ethnographic photography, and, through a Selbstgleichschaltung (a self-co-ordination with the regime), continued to practice as photographers throughout the twelve years of the Third Reich. The volume explores, through photographic reproductions and accompanying analysis, diverse aspects of photography during the Third Reich, ranging from the influence of Modernism, the qualitative effect of propaganda photography, and the utilisation of technology such as colour film, to the photograph as ideological metaphor. With an emphasis on the idealised representation of the German body and the role of physiognomy within this representation, the book examines how select photographers created and developed a visual myth of the ‘master race’ and its antitheses under the auspices of the Nationalist Socialist state. Photography in the Third Reich approaches its historical source photographs as material culture, examining their production, construction and proliferation. This detailed and informative text will be a valuable resource not only to historians studying the Third Reich, but to scholars and students of film, history of art, politics, media studies, cultural studies and holocaust studies.

Oppenheim of Greece, photographic incunabula by David Octavius Hill and Robert Adamson, as well as prints by Julia Margaret Cameron, Nadar and Franz Hanfstaengl. The inventory also includes 200 caricatures and illustrations on the behavior of people in front of and behind the camera and numerous documents and autographs from Daguerre to Talbot, from Hermann Biow to Laszlo Moholy-Nagy. Erich Stenger obtained from August Sander a rare original `Stammappen' on the work of "Citizens of the 20th Century". The Gesellschaft Deutscher Lichtbildner (GDL) was then honored to present him with a portfolio of more than 50 portraits of 1949/50 members. In the 1960s the following were added to the collection: the personal estate of Hermann Krone of Dresden, photographs by Baldus and Charles Negre, more than 300 portraits of artists, writers and politicians shot by Hugo Erfurth in Dresden and Cologne, photographs by Erich Salomon, Fritz Henle, etc. This unique inventory and the history of this collection is said to be the oldest collection on the cultural history of photography in German-speaking countries. Now for the first time Facts provides an overview of the entire collection. Co-published with Museum Ludwig, Cologne.
