David Goldblatt photographed and documented South African society for more than fifty years. Of Lithuanian Jewish heritage, Goldblatt was born in Randfontein. He began photographing professionally in the early 1960s, focusing on the effects of the National Party’s legislation of apartheid. Over the years, he chronicled the plight of black communities, the culture of the Afrikaner nationalists, and the comfort of white suburbanites, as well as the condition of race relations in the country after the end of apartheid. Goldblatt received the Hasselblad Photography Award (2006) and the Henri-Cartier Bresson Award (2009).
