Guy Tillim, Joburg: Points of View (SIGNED)

Joburg : Points of View is comprised entirely of diptychs, pairs of photographs that both animate and freeze a momentary perception. Through the expansion of the field of vision we are compelled to recognise spaces on their own terms, and by the same notion we are called to question our way of looking.[:en]In Joburg: Points of View the artist returns to the city which he last photographed a decade ago.

At that time, Johannesburg offered a provocation to Tillim’s understanding of documentary photography and debates around representing a politically contested landscape. More recently, the artist has been increasingly interested in notions of judgment and control around image-making.
