David Goldblatt

David Goldblatt's career is defined by a rare moral clarity and a decades-long commitment to documenting South Africa's complex history. His receipt of the Order of Luthuli in 2012 stands as a testament to his contribution to the struggle against apartheid. The major retrospective at the Tate Modern in 2012 marked a pinnacle of international recognition, placing him among the most important documentary photographers of the 20th century. His work has been consistently cited in lists of the greatest photographers, and his influence extends through his teaching at the Market Photo Workshop.
