These buildings are an important indication of our level of civilisation and a convincing proof for a judgmental critical world - that for more than 300 years a structured and proper Western civilisation has flourished and exist here at the southern point of Africa. The visible tracks of our cultural heritage are our historic buildings…they are undoubtedly the deeds to the land we love and which God in his mercy gave to us. 1 2 Fig.1.

  • An Exhibition of South African Ceramics at Iziko Museums Article by Esther Esymol
    Reflections on Fired – An Exhibition of South African Ceramics at Iziko Museums Article by Esther Esymol Abstract An exhibition dedicated to the history and development of South African ceramics, Fired, was on show at the Castle of Good Hope in Cape Town, South Africa, from 25th February 2012 until its temporary closure on 28th January 2015. Fired is due to reopen early 2016. The exhibition was created from the rich array of ceramics held in the permanent collections of Iziko Museums of South Africa. Iziko was formed in 1998 when various Cape Town based museums, having formerly functioned separately, were amalgamated into one organizational structure. Fired was created to celebrate the artistry of South African ceramists, showcasing works in clay created for domestic, ceremonial or decorative purposes, dating from the archaeological past to the present. This article reflects on the curatorial and design approaches to Fired, and the various themes which informed the exhibition. Reference is also made to the formation of the Iziko ceramics collections, and the ways in which Fired as an exhibition departed from ceramics displays previously presented in the museums that made up the Iziko group. Key words ceramics, studio pottery, production pottery, Community Economic Development (CED) potteries, museums Introduction Fired – an Exhibition of South African Ceramics celebrated South Africa’s rich and diverse legacy of ceramic making. The exhibition showcased a selection of about two hundred ceramic works, including some of the earliest indigenous pottery made in South Africa, going back some two thousand years, through to work produced by contemporary South African ceramists. The works were drawn mainly from the Social History Collections department of Iziko Museums of South Africa.1 Design and curatorial approaches Fired was exhibited within an evocative space in the Castle, with arched ceilings and columns and presented in two large elongated chambers (Fig.1).

  • Walking Tour of Harrisburg Is Both Enjoyable and Rewarding
    “Creating a Sense of Place and a Healthy Community” Walking Tour Hosted by the City of Harrisburg Department of Building and Housing Development in cooperation with the Department of Parks and Recreation Stephen R. Reed, Mayor - Harrisburg City Council Welcome to Harrisburg! With pleasure, we are delighted to welcome you to Pennsylvania’s Capital City of Harrisburg and City Island. We are honored to serve as your host community and hope that your unique walking tour of Harrisburg is both enjoyable and rewarding. From Native American occupation dating back nearly 10,000 years to its earliest days as a colonial outpost, the Union Army’s largest training camp during the Civil War, and a major industrial power into the mid-Twentieth Century, or continuing today as the Heart of Pennsylvania’s focal point for commerce, government, the arts and entertainment, Harrisburg has been in the forefront of this state’s and nation’s growth for many centuries. Today, Harrisburg is considered a national role model for successful urban revitalization, with more than $2 billion in new investment realized during the current era. Our gratitude is extended to each of you for participating in today’s tour. Proper nutrition is essential to performing at one’s full capability, and the absence of proper diets for many Americans has led to a host of health and other physical problems that can severely affect one’s quality of life. Your good efforts prove that you understand these critical issues, and are willing to do something about it. For this, you have our appreciation and regard.
