"Maybe music allows for an easier transition. When you are creating images and writing about a place, it is quite alien for Europeans and Americans to understand what it is to be in South Africa. Ideas around apartheid are understood, but they're also untranslatable. They are very specific to place and time."
– Matthew Blackman

At the conclusion of the inaugural A4 Library Residency, Matthew Blackman, Khanya Mashabela, and Daniel Malan discuss South African jazz, art, and photojournalism in the 1950s and ‘60s.
