{"product_id":"david-goldblatt-david-goldblatt-9783958295599","title":"David Goldblatt: The Last Interview","description":"\u003cp\u003eAccompanied by a selection of some of David Goldblatt's (1930-2018) lesser-known photographs, this distilled dialogue is drawn directly from the recordings of a roving conversation with the photographer conducted three months before his death in June 2018. Goldblatt was born in Randfontein--a mining town on the Witwatersrand gold reef--in 1930, the grandson of Lithuanian-Jewish migrants who settled in South Africa after escaping persecution in Europe. After the death of his father in 1962, Goldblatt sold the family clothing business to become a full-time photographer. In this candid conversation with writer Alexandra Dodd, Goldblatt shares his views about land and landscape, the dangerous lure of repetition in portrait photography, Johannesburg, the solipsism of life as a photographer, staying sharp, his visceral intolerance of censorship, his abiding interest in structures and his observation of instances of dominion under democracy, among other key themes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Goldblatt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3958295592\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783958295599\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Steidl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/12\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.90w x 0.70d","brand":"David Goldblatt","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43983493136639,"sku":"9783958295599","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fe950648-d028-4226-a819-724041ef69d5.jpg?v=1683266975","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/david-goldblatt-david-goldblatt-9783958295599","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
