About Barry Goldman

With over 40 years of experience, from the mid-1980s to the present, Barry Goldman counts some of South Africa’s most prominent architects and firms among his clients. Goldman kicked off his career by winning a British Press Scholarship to study photography at the London College of Printing. After his return to SA he ran a large studio specialising in photography for advertising agencies, design groups, publishers, individuals and corporates. He then moved into the multimedia launch arena, doing projects both locally and internationally.

He has now returned to his roots as a photographer, merging his architectural work with street photography, portraiture, the arts and humanitarian photography. The sculptor Constantin Brancusi’s statement, “Architecture is inhabited sculpture”, had a major influence on Goldman’s work. 

Goldman’s work has appeared numerous times in Leading Architecture + Design and many other prestigious publications worldwide.
