The Way I See It by Jrgen Schadeberg
Photographer Jurgen Schadeberg was the man behind the camera, recording history as it unfolded in apartheid South Africa, but his personal story is no less extraordinary. His empathy for the displaced, the persecuted and the marginalised was already deeply rooted by the time he came to South Africa from Germany in 1950.
JÜRGEN SCHADEBERG was born in Berlin in 1931. While still in his teens, he worked as an apprentice photographer for a press agency in Hamburg. In 1950 he emigrated to South Africa and became chief photographer, picture editor and art director at Drum magazine. In 1964 Schadeberg left South Africa for London. During the sixties and seventies he freelanced as a photojournalist in Europe and America. He also taught at the New School in New York, the Central School of Art & Design in London and the Hoch Kunst School in Hamburg, before returning to South Africa in 1985 for 22 years. His body of work, which spans more than 70 years and incorporates a collection of some 200 000 negatives, captures a wealth of timeless and iconic images that have been widely exhibited and showcased. Schadeberg, in partnership with his wife, Claudia, continues to work actively on new major photographic projects, books and exhibitions, and to make his own silver archival hand prints. He and Claudia currently live in Spain.
