    YESTERDAY • TODAY • TOMORROW ARTSCAPE THEATRE CENTRE | 1 OUR THEME: YESTERDAY, TODAY & TOMORROW “… in order to celebrate the achievements over the past 50 years, we need to be mindful of how it came about, build on the work of those that came before us, and lead the way to a future that is even more inclusive, more equitable and more just – a constant strife.” – Marlene le Roux Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow Rajesh Jock CHAIRPERSON Artscape Theatre Centre Artscape Theatre Centre (formally the Nico Malan Theatre) has made major advances since its inception in 1971. Relying on a strong commitment from the National Department of Sport, Arts and Culture, the theatre now celebrates its Golden Anniversary! Entertainment, arts and culture contributes to the vibrancy, heritage and activation of the Cape Town Metropolitan City as well as the Western Cape Province, and plays an important role in tourism and economic growth. Since being renamed circa 1999, Artscape has provided a modern, contemporary and world-class regional venue supporting arts and culture, and especially local talent. Artscape represents a very special organisation, comprising committed professionals, who are dedicated to the advancement of many different local and international productions in the City of Cape Town and many other parts of the Western Cape Province. Combined with the passion and commitment of major stakeholders both nationally and provincially, Artscape has become a home for all in the arts and will continue to embrace the diverse communities of the Western Cape through performers and patrons. I thank and congratulate everyone who has, over many years, dedicated their expertise, time, effort and passion to continually building this wonderful organisation and making it what it is today.

  • Falling and Rising in the Wake of Cecil John Rhodes Tamar Garb
    Falling and Rising In the Wake of Cecil John Rhodes Tamar Garb One spectacular event, many competing images. On the April 9, 2015, the University of Cape Town (UCT) enabled the removal of its most contentious public monument, the statue of Cecil John Rhodes, one-time prime minister of the Cape Colony (1890–96), arch imperialist, benefactor of the university’s estate, and protagonist of white supremacy.1 Both veteran documentary photographer David Goldblatt and emerging performance/visual artist Sethembile Msezane were there to witness the scene. As their images testify, they were not alone. Equipped with mobile phones and iPads, hundreds of onlookers attended the auspicious unseating, stretching their arms heavenward as if saluting or hailing history rather than merely capturing its symbolic passage. Figs 1, 2 Goldblatt’s and Msezane’s iconic photographs are particularly notable for capturing alternative views of an ongoing, sometimes bitter, argument. Despite the formal, aesthetic, and affective differences between these two photographs, the proliferation of handheld devices of recordkeeping and personal testimony that frame the scene are shared, providing the contemporary context for the newsworthy spectacle, democratized dissemination, and embodied experience that the scene of removal represents. Not only is it meaningful that the controversial, now visibly diminished, statue was taken down, but the public manner and individuated mediation/consumption of its removal makes the event significant at both a subjective and social level.
