RESEARCH: 1995 – Present The Artist’s Book in South Africa My decision to research the book as an artwork was made when I viewed Selected Poems 1961 – 1991. This book was a collaborative effort between the poet Patrick Cullinan; the artist Judith Mason, who produced the illuminations and illustrations; Mark Attwood, who hand printed the book; Bruce Attwood, who made the wooden cover boards and Johan Maree who bound the book. After having been introduced to Jack Ginsberg and his extraordinary collection of artists’ books I was invited by Steven Sack, then of the Johannesburg Art Gallery, to curate the only exhibition of Artists’ Books ever held in South Africa. A significant portion of Jack’s collection formed the basis of the exhibition to which I added a number of local works which I was uncovering and researching at the time. Artists’ Books in the Ginsberg Collection became one of the largest exhibitions of its kind in the world when it opened in 1996. My research is contained on the website www.theartistsbook.org.za that won the NIHSS award in the category, Digital Humanities

  • 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.

Lizamore explains: “When we initially decided to Lizamore comments about The Unequal do an exhibition based on the exploration of the Conversation: “When identifying artists for this show, Afrikaner’s place as an African, little did we realise how we looked to significant names whose artistic practice overwhelming the response would be. The curatorial would lend itself to this narrative. Upon looking at our narrative took as its cue the first person recorded list, we realised that, like other industries, a pattern (according to legend) to have identified himself as started emerging that gave us a new insight.

  • 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.

ACTION THROUGH AESTHETICS: PHILANTHROPIC ART INITIATIVES IN SOUTH AFRICA DURING THE APARTHEID by CALLIE CRABB Under the Direction of Dr. Kimberly Cleveland ABSTRACT South African artists played an expansive philanthropic role throughout the stages of the apartheid movement. Their artwork ranged from reflective to pro-active and reconciliatory. Alt- hough many scholars argue that South African artists were agents of social change, scholars have not drawn a connection between South African art history and philanthropy. Philanthropy is a platform from which artists can serve as catalysts within society. This thesis argues that
