Hugo is one of South Africa’s leading photographers.

Guy Tillim (b. 1962) is based in Cape Town, South Africa.
For his brilliantly observed studies of the life of the often beleaguered residents of Hillbrow, Johannesburg in their decaying and overcrowded environment, Guy won the Leica Oskar Barnack Award 2005, awarded by the Leica Camera Group in collaboration with Rencontres de la Photographie festival held in Arles, France.
Mikhael Subotzky, Johnny Fortune
Pigment inks on archival cotton rag paper

Edition of 60
Mikhael Subotzky (b. 1981) is based in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Subotzky’s work in Pollsmoor Prison, in his final year at the University of Cape Town’s Michaelis School of Fine Art, led to an extraordinarily engaged series of photographs of life inside that overcrowded institution, ‘Die Vier Hoeke’. This project took place in 2004, where he also worked with the prisoners teaching them to make their own photographs. This image is from that body of work.
