Ponte City Revisited: 54 Storeys

Born in Cape Town in 1981, Mikhael Subotzky is an artist working across mediums including film, photography, painting and collage. His work is a fractured attempt to place himself in relation to the social, historical and political narratives surrounding him, and combines the directness of social documentary photography with a reconsideration of the photographic medium itself. Subotzky¿s work is held in public collections including the Museum of Modern Art, New York, Tate Modern, London, and the San Francisco Museum of Art, and has been exhibited at the Liverpool (2012), Lubumbashi (2013) and Venice (2015) Biennials. He lives and works in Johannesburg.
