Mr Mkhize’s Portrait and Other Stories from the New South Africa at Festival of the Photograph

Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin

Mr Mkhize was chosen to be in the Best Book Exhibition at the Festival of the Photograph, Charlottesville. USA.

The Festival of the Photograph, an annual event celebrating photography, launched its first year in Charlottesville, Virginia, on June 7-9, 2007. For the occasion, Charlottesville’s historic downtown was transformed into a photographic space with exhibitions, master classes, interviews, outdoor screenings, and special events. Several thousand photographers, photography curators and photography enthusiasts from around the world attended. The festival is a not-for-profit event and this year featured the work of Sally Mann, Eugene Richards and William Albert Allard, among others.

The festival also included an exhibition of the best photography books published in recent years. The books were displayed in the former Innisfree space located at the Jefferson Theater in the center of Charlottesville. The exhibition was a touch, feel, and read experience – but most of all was a celebration of book-making. Upon conclusion of the festival, the books were housed in a library in Charlottesville and made available for educational purposes.
