Description

Dropout Neville Lister accompanies acclaimed photographer Saul Auerbach for a day, to learn a lesson for life.

They play a game: from a hill above Johannesburg they pick three houses and decide to knock on their doors in search of a story.

Auerbach’s images of the first two will become classic portraits, but soon the light fades.

Lister only reaches the third house decades later, returning to post-apartheid South Africa and a Johannesburg altered almost beyond recognition.

How to live when estranged from your birthplace? What do you lose when you are no longer lost? Double Negative is a subtle triptych that captures the ordinary life of Neville Lister during South Africa’s extraordinary revolution.

Ivan Vladislavic lays moments side by side like photographs on a table.

He lucidly portrays a city and its many lives through reflections on memory, art and what we should really be looking for.
