South Africa Blog#3
South Africa, Blog #3 We are now on our final day in Cape Town for this trip, after a wonderful three week vacation that has taken across almost the whole of the country, to each of its three capital cities and to some of the most spectacular scenery that we have ever seen. We started in Pretoria and the last time we wrote (a week ago) we had just arrived in Cape Town to spend a week in our nephew’s villa here—living in the most luxurious surroundings and once again enjoying every- thing that this wonderful city has to offer. We have been treated to meals cooked for us by the resident chef, chauffer-driven trips to fantastic wine estates and days out on our own in the city and surrounding area. On Monday we visited the Cape of Good Hope. The weather in Bantry Bay where we are staying was very misty and we couldn’t see the ocean only a few hundred feet below us but we were told that this could change as we rounded Table Mountain. Indeed, even before we reached the city, let alone the cape peninsula, there were breaks in the cloud and some blue sky. This just got better as we drove down the east coast of the peninsula and made our first stop in Simon’s Town. This town has a main street of beautiful buildings and is one of the first settlements of the Cape Colony. It is also the home of the South African Navy and there is a significant naval presence here. -

The V&A Waterfront As Workplace and Leisure
THE V&A WATERFRONT AS WORKPLACE AND LEISURE SPACE FOR CAPETONIANS by ROZITTA ELIZABETH TERCIA DE VILLIERS Thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University. Supervisor: Prof SLA Ferreira March 2016 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za ii DECLARATION By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. March 2016 Copyright © 2016 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za iii SUMMARY According to a report compiled in 2012 by Projects for Public Spaces (PPS) on behalf of UN-Habitat, one third of the world's population resided in cities in the 1950s. This figure increased to 50% in the following half century and is predicted to be two thirds by 2050. The building of new skyscrapers and rapid urban development often causes urban communities' public spaces to disappear leading to more stressful living environments in crowded urban neighbourhoods. Such stressed communities often look for alternatives to fulfil their needs to interact in nature and in open spaces. One solution to this global challenge is the popular rise of urban waterfront developments that provide a link between water spaces and cities, creating multi-use destinations, which provide urban citizens with the public spaces they need to encourage public interaction and social cohesion. -
The Gesture and the Sign Press Release 19 March 2013
The Gesture and the Sign 3 April – 8 June 2013 ‘The Gesture and the Sign’ features recent works by a range of international artists that take their cue from pictorial aspects of lyrical abstraction. With an emphasis on the actual process of painting, lyrical or gestural abstraction can be characterised by techniques that are governed by the artist’s interaction with chance, intuition and circumstance. Triggered by diverse conditions and impulses, the paintings and works on paper in this exhibition share a common purpose in the primacy given to the gesture, the sign and material. Artists such as Mark Bradford, Julie Mehretu, Sterling Ruby and Daniel Senise apply abstraction as a means of observing, negotiating or deconstructing an increasingly mediated world. In Mark Bradford’s large-scale, multi-part work, he uses materials found in the vicinity of his Los Angeles studio (in this case, a merchant poster featuring the telephone number for a ‘Slip and Fall’ lawyer) as the basis for an epic, dense and visually complex composition. The spray painted, hallucinatory canvases of Sterling Ruby also draw influence from his local neighbourhood, here in the form of gang graffiti and the power struggles associated with tagging, defacement and dominion of territory. Julie Mehretu’s dynamic, layered compositions feature intuitive gesture, architectural information and visual signs that build into a maelstrom of time, place and art history, while the abstract compositions of Daniel Senise combine materials embedded and marked with an implied history, which are then overlaid with a pristine white monochrome as an erasure of the past. Accident, failure and alchemy all play a part in the paintings of Sergej Jensen, David Ostrowski and Jacob Kassay. -

Art History: International Art Exhibitions
FRICK FINE ARTS LIBRARY ART HISTORY: INTERNATIONAL ART EXHIBITIONS Library Guide Series, No. 42 “Qui scit ubi scientis sit, ille est proximus habenti.” -- Brunetiere* What Is an International Art Exhibition? International art exhibitions have a long history that has its roots in the 19th century. Salon exhibitions took place in Paris from 1667 onwards under the auspices of the French Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture and were held on a biennial basis from 1855 onwards. That same year the Salons were held in the Palais de ‘l’Industrie constructed for the World’s Fair that year. A number of rival salons were established and in 1881 the government withdrew official support from the main Salon and handed over its direction to artists. Afterward, the Salon began to lose its prestige and influence in the face of competition from various independent exhibitions such as the Salon des Independents (1884), the Societe Nationale des Beaux-Arts (1890) and the Salon d’Automne (1903). The end of the 19th century was a time marked by an internationalist spirit that celebrated technological advancement and the accumulation of wealth through global colonial structures. The institution of world’s fairs was one feature of that spirit, the first one being held in London during 1851. Many of the fairs that followed throughout the 19th and 20th centuries included art buildings to display works by the current artists of the day. At times it is difficult to distinguish biennial and triennial art exhibitions from international art festivals, art fairs or trade shows. The first art fair one in the twentieth century was the 1913 Armory Show in New York which was open to progressive painters usually neglected. -

She Creates Carved and Painted Wooden Figures That Reflect The
THE PROCESS FOLLOWED IN APPOINTING THE NOBEL SQUARE ARTISTS 26 July 2005 After the public launch of the Nobel Square Project in December 2003, a search was initiated for an appropriate artist or artists to execute the project in a way that would do justice to the legacies each of South Africa’s four Nobel Peace Prize Laureates have contributed to the country’s national conscience and international stature. Identifying the artists This search was launched in January 2004 by the Nobel Square Technical Committee*, comprising Western Cape art and technical experts, and acting as advisory body to the Nobel Square Project Committee**, comprising representatives of the four Laureates, Western Cape Government, V & A Waterfront and the province’s tourism and arts sectors. After weeks of thorough research and wide-ranging consultations the names of ten of South Africa’s top artists who were able to produce portrait-like or representational images of the Laureates, were identified by the Technical Committee and recommended to the Project Committee. They were Bonita Alice, Andries Botha, Peter Hall, Noria Mabasa, Isaac Makaleni, Johannes Maswanganyi, Anton Momberg, Claudette Schreuders, Johannes Segogela and Willem Strydom. The artists, from as far as the Limpopo Province, Eastern Cape and the Karoo, were invited to Cape Town for a two-day briefing and orientation session and Nobel Square site visit. They also had the option of visiting a Cape Town foundry. After the public announcement of their names in March 2004, the artists were invited to submit maquettes (small models) and/or drawings of their proposals for the project to the Technical Committee. -

Theme of ICC 2023 By 2023 the international cartography and geospatial information community will have made great progress in areas of new developments in their fields and will by that time be ready to showcase the results of the latest research and development. The related technology will be more advanced, in particular providing greater connectivity globally to local. At that time there will be new ways in which to represent geospatial information and how this geospatial information relates to and value-adds to other information. There will be new ways in which humans interact with and use cartography and geospatial information. In 2023 we will be ready to discuss and see in practice the new cartography and geospatial information science and management. The topic of ‘smart cartography’ will be ripe for discussion and debate. -
