Photography Education Trust

The Photography Education Trust is a registered public benefit trust to encourage and nurture photography as a response to South Africa’s vibrant, conflicted and constantly changing society, as a means of creating mutual understanding; thereby assisting in the evolution of a better society for all.

It aims to provide training to aspirant photographers, including aspirant photographers from disadvantaged backgrounds, to equip them with the attitudes, experience, values and technical skills necessary to enable them to find employment or create self-employment while pursuing the ethos described above.

The Photography is a registered Public Benefit Organisation (including Sect 18A status) approved by the Commissioner for the South African Revenue Service.

The Photography Education Trust was established by David Goldblatt, Mfundi Vundla and John Fleetwood.

Dorothee Kreutzfeldt (b. 1970 in Windhoek) is an artist and lecturer based in Johannesburg.

Her work as painter, researcher and educator evolves around the city and the ways in which urban spaces and imaginaries define subjectivities, notions of citizenship and agency. This has included researching the impact of bomb attacks in Cape Town in 1999 to the ways in which histories are written into the contested fabric and reconfigurations of Johannesburg.
She completed her MA FA at WITS University with distinction (2004). In 2014 Kreutzfeldt co-published the book *Not No Place, Johannesburg Fragments of Spaces and Times* with Bettina Malcomess. In 2012 she joined the Department of Fine Art at the WITS University. Over the last 6 years she has mainly focused on her teaching portfolio and is currently working towards a PhD proposal.
