Beyond the Barricades: Popular Resistance in South Africa in the 1980s
This exhibition (Editors, Omar Badsha, Gideon Mendel and Paul Weinberg) is an important collection of photographs by twenty South African photographers, mainly from the photographic collective, Afrapix. Both, the exhibition and subsequent book, have become an indispensable anthology of popular resistance in South Africa during the 1980’s. The collection highlights one of the longest and bloodiest periods of political resistance to apartheid, a time of mass mobilization and brutal repression when taking of images was often a matter of life and death.
