These include several photographs from 1936 that Walker Evans had made for Let Us Now Praise Famous Men, the book he published with James Agee. Also included are never before published photographs by Walker Evans, Russell Lee, Ben Shahn, Marion Post Wolcott, John Vachon, Paul Carter, Theodor Jung, Carl Mydans, and Arthur Rothstein.While the book's images document 1930s agriculture and landscapes, they also have been chosen for the manner in which their black hole (created by Roy Stryker's hole punch) abstracts its subjects. McDowell feels that, from a modern viewpoint, the black hole of the "killed" negatives has the appearance of being a contemporary mark, one current with the practice of intervention, alteration, and appropriation. This provides the photographs a temporal duality in which they present the post-Depression era through a contemporary filter. In our continuing struggle to recover from 2008's Great Recession, these photographs speak to now even as they confer on past government programs, race and class, damaged and bountiful land, drought, flood, and exodus.

His is a wonderful selection of portraits, landscapes and views from the pulse of daily life... De Vos’s point of view is intimate without being aggressive.,- ZEKE Magazine, Spring 2019Featured in Black + White Magazine and F-Stop MagazinePhotographs and introduction by Pieter de VosForeword by Leilani Farha Contributions by Stephan de Beer and Donald Banda HOMELANDS is the product of seven years of documentary work. The book provides an intimate view of South Africa, 25 years after apartheid, through the life of Donald Banda. Since 2012, I have been collaborating with Donald Banda to explore questions of home and belonging. I met Donald when he was living in Woodlane Village, an informal settlement located in a wealthy suburb in Pretoria. The Village is a microcosm for the tensions South Africa is experiencing around land, migration, and the growing gap between the rich and the poor.  Early in my time with Donald, he confided that he had long desired to have his story told. But he never had the means to do so. This book represents my promise to carry his story forward. His narrative personifies the story of my homeland: a place of promise and heartache; a place of perseverance and faith; a place where personal histories reveal complex social truths. As South Africa observes the 25-year anniversary of the abolishment of apartheid, it is important to reflect on the country’s imperfect journey to democracy. For many, the dream of the “rainbow nation” remains elusive.  Pieter de Vos is an award-winning photographer, educator and facilitator.Leilani Farha is the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Right to Housing.Stephan de Beer is the Director of the Centre of Contextual Ministry, University of Pretoria.  View Details
