Identity, Place and Displacement in the Visual Art of Female Artists at the Vaal University of Technology (VUT), 1994-2004 by Ju Identity, place and displacement in the visual art of female artists at the Vaal University of Technology (VUT), 1994-2004 by Judy Ramgolam Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree DPhil (Visual Studies) in the FACULTY OF HUMANITIES UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA April 2011 Promoter: Prof J van Eeden © University of Pretoria SUMMARY Title of thesis: Identity, place and displacement in the visual art of female artists at the Vaal University of Technology (VUT), 1994-2004 Name of student: Judy Ramgolam Promoter: Promoter: Prof J van Eeden Department of Visual Arts Degree: DPhil (Visual Studies) The first ten years of democracy (1994-2004) in South Africa was an important period marked by a plethora of research activities in South Africa. The 2004 exhibition of artworks by academic staff from the Vaal University of Technology (VUT) was an example of one such event. A critical reading of these artworks exhibited diverse representations of their world views and also informed the initial research for this study. All the artworks on exhibition illustrated a commonality of purpose in the artists‘ interrogation and representation of their fragmented identities in a transforming political landscape. Therefore, this thesis considers a political reading of the ideas of identity, place and displacement in the artworks of thirteen female artists at VUT from 1994 to 2004. The rationale of this thesis was to examine in what way the artists‘ construction and representations of identity, place and displacement were influenced by the environmental factors of the historical, political and academic culture in the microcosm of the Vaal region. However, the inclusion of Tracey Rose in this study extended the discourses of identity, place and displacement to consider the disjunctures and ii continuities of cultural practices in ethnicities in South Africa. This thesis furthermore proposed to address the gendered omissions of female artists from contemporary literature and therefore focuses on the creative productions of female artists from VUT. The significance of this study lies in the contribution of knowledge on the existing body of literature of art and artists in South Africa and in initiating the exercise of documenting the visual history of the Vaal region. The theoretical underpinnings are informed by the discourses of cultural studies, postcolonial studies and feminism/s. The thesis delimits the political and historical events of South Africa from pre-history to contemporary South Africa. A postcolonial reading of history is carried out in order to draw attention to inconsistencies and fallacies inherent in the colonial recording of historical events relevant to this study. The influential historical and political events in the discourse of place and displacement have been included in view of their depiction or references made by the artists discussed in this study and to contextualise the geopolitical space of the Vaal Triangle. The political events before and after the decline of apartheid were included to frame the strategy of decolonisation of the new political dispensation. A context for the shifting identities of the artists in a neoliberal democracy, namely the political and historical events germane to the Vaal Triangle and to the artists dealt with in this study, is provided to position the ideological divide between Afrikaner nationalism and a neoliberal democracy. The thesis provides a brief overview of South African art in order to delineate a national perspective and framework for the discussion of the artworks later in the study that are located predominantly in the Vaal Triangle. An average of three artworks per artist were selected for discussion. The selected artworks reflect heterogeneous interpretations of the discursive themes of landscape, the positions of women, shifting timelines and contemporary politics in South African social and cultural practice. There was an observable divide in the artworks that displayed explicit and implicit signifiers referring to the constructs of identity, place and displacement. Identities formed in the spaces of colonisation and in the dislocated, displaced, raced and gendered identities, inform the world views of the artists selected for this study. iii KEY TERMS: Female artists, identity, place, displacement, landscape, political reading, postcolonial, Vaal University of Technology iv DECLARATION I __________________________________________________ Student number __________________________________________________ Declaration 1.

  • 1 Case Study Interview with David Paton Artist / Academic Senior
    Case study interview with David Paton Teaching Artist / Academic In their first year, Fine Art students at the University Senior Lecturer: Visual Art of Johannesburg (UJ, formerly the Technikon University of Johannesburg, South Africa Witwatersrand) have a project in printmaking to produce hade-made books based on the Bill of Rights. This involvement with the book has its roots in an interest in the book arts by current and former staff in the department who include, Kim Berman, Philippa Hobbs, Sr. Sheila Flynn and Willem Boshoff. Many important book artists in South Africa: Giulio Tambellini, Flip Hatting, Sonya Strafella and Carol Hofmeyr amongst others, received their introduction to the genre as students of the Department. UJ’s Graphic Design students undertake book-design in their 3rd and 4th year, but they print and bind them outside of the university. At the Michaelis School of Fine Art (University of Cape Town) their printmaking department has, for many years, included tuition in fine press and artists’ books, with post-graduate students sometimes www.theartistsbook.org.za producing artists’ books as part of their output. Some David Paton is the creator of this research website, of these books can be found in the School’s Katrine made to share information, development and ideas Harries Print Cabinet (KHPK – found at http://cca. around the South African Artist’s Book over the last uct.ac.za/collections/print-cabinet/).

  • Nuusbrief / Newsletter Augustus / August 2011
    Nuusbrief / Newsletter Augustus / August 2011 We are more than half way through 2011 and indeed Stellenbosch Arts Association has been offering a wide spectrum of activities, not only for artists but also for art lovers of all ages. Our monthly member meetings were very well attended, one of the highlights being Barry Gibb’s talk on Auguste Rodin-film snippets from Camille Claude were shown and reference was made to greats such as Michelangelo and Henry Moore. Daniel Louw presented a series of six talks on Icons: windows into eternity, during which the focus shifted from spirituality to corporality, from the sublime to the ridiculous and from life to death. We recently had the opportunity to watch the graffiti artist’s, Banksy's, first film (Exit Through the Gift Shop) billed as "the world's first street art disaster movie". The film was released in the UK on 5 March 2010 and in January 2011 it was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary. Our first workshop was presented by Marieke Kruger from Paarl with the theme, female figure studies. This was followed by Lorraine Blumer’s painting course and Lenie Harley’s cement sculpturing courses. What is more, we co-sponsored a holiday art project during the June school holiday for children aged 6 to 14 years in collaboration with Sasol Art Museum. We also presented a second workshop on comic art for teenagers, presented by Vernon Fourie. This was even attended by two fathers accompanying their sons! There was a special request for a follow- up of the comic course during the September school holiday.
